I'm pretty rubbish at maintaining a thread for each project I do so I'm going to have a continuous thread for all the things I'm upto  I would love crit/feedback on anything you see so feel free to rip into things.

I'll start with just posting a collection of current personal projects.
Finished High poly renders more on artstation

Work in progress reworking d0g from HL2 to a current gen quality and want to 3d print him into an action figure.

going to be doing some more design-based stuff and short sharp weapon and vehicle studies

playing around with a silly idea for the allegorithmic "road trip in 2116" comp

Cool stuff- I really like the quad-copter...the renders look nice. The model and details look great- I really like the tape.  Were you going to finish it out with full materials/textures? I would have taken that first render as a photograph if it weren't for some of the materials. Feels like it should have some scratches/damage too- but I'm sure that would come if you took it further...

Kobalt Kiwii

Hey, thanks very much all of the materials on the quad itself are just consistent values nothing more also very little has been sculpted so yea as you say needs a sculpt pass and adding of grime,dirt,scratches,paint,wear and tear, etc in the textures. I would really like to make it game ready and textured but... But... Time, also design is probably my weakest thing so need to work on that. Maybe after some other bits and bobs I'll get back to it

Got d0g's right leg printed and tested last week

Spent yesterday modelling Stitch's blaster, here's the high poly. Going to try texture it as if it exists in the real world

Been playing around with d0g again, just a couple of experiments with animation and rigging

All retopologised and baked! got it down to 13,033 tris which is still too many BUT it does include all the internals which was unnecessary but fun.

here's base materials in substance painter iRay

bit of an update on the texturing

I really like how your DIY drone came out! Very good looking, would be totally cool in-engine with some controller !

Kobalt Kiwii

Kobalt Kiwii

More progress on the texturing, slowly getting used to metal/rough. Still got lots to do but sooon.
