Hi All,

I want to share a new personal project I'm working on, based on an inspiration from Keith Thompson illustrations.

I just finished the Hi-Poly Model and started to prepare the low-poly one for texturing with Quixel suite... many updates soon!
Thanks in advance for your feedbacks.

Here below the low poly version (with baked normal and occlusion map).

That is really freakin' awesome! Reminds me of those old robot toys I had as a kid. ^^

Thanks man, the original concept from K.Thompson was only about the frontal part, so it is quite similar but all the rest I re-construct with my fantasy.

Hey Ged! nice model. It looks a bit like if it fired the gun it would end up sitting on its bum, maybe if the legs were posed it would look more stable. What is the thing under the front middle, kinda looks like the head of a transformer or something? How big is this thing? some more scale cues(doors windows, hatches, lights etc) would be nice, Im thinking its about the size of a small tank as the rivets, netting and spring are rather large.

Hey Ged! Thanks for your feedback, as I said I've started the work from a concept of K.Thompson, in his book he mentioned the robot ability to use his claws to maintain the position while it's shooting. About the rear part I decided to model a sort of box with a machine gun and some seats: I used a 3dsmax biped to study proportions and to have a crew of 2 passengers.

I attached some additionals screenshots to show this part.

thats cool, so it is quite a small vehicle then, at first I thought it was like the size of a huge truck or something. looking forward to the texturing

Hi all, I know that a long time is passed out but I could go back to work only recently on this project. Here below some texturing screenshots
