Field Support Mech

Damian Nachman

Started working on a Sci Fi support mech!
High poly work so far:


Gonna give it a quick sculpt pass, and move on to the low poly!

It might work better with 6 legs instead of 4. Insect movement is much easier for robots than quadruped - there is always a set of 3 legs on the ground, so the body is always stable.

I'd expect some sort of arms, unless the legs do double duty. (Another reason for 6 legs.)

The body seems rather tall & thin.

A head on a turret would let the robot move off in any direction without rotating the body. This, of course, remains a standard idea of a support/probe robot:

Thanks for the feedback, though I'm sticking to the concept.
Its a modern terran-ish quadruped bot, which is a little bit more grounded in reality.
Also, Mat ID's:

If you're sticking to the concept it would be handy to see what the concept is I like the look of the model so far.

That's it! Found it on pinterest, so thanks for pointing out the artist.
Also, made some obivous changes to the model, to add a little bit more functionality.
