I know this question has been asked many times, but i have trouble to find it correct answer that's bother me.
Can one person make all this alone? I mean can i model the transformer and then texture and render him, i am not going to animation because i am not really interest in that part
Can i achieve the same effect like the transformers from the movie? And how? Do you have or know any good tutorials where you have the entire tutorial from modeling and rendering transformer.
Is there any good references pictures about robots from the Transformers movie. So can give me better view of modeling.

Yes... with and decent 3d package and a lot of practice.

Yes
And how?
Lots of practice and hard work

That's way to specific, I'd look for basic vehicles and hard surface modeling tutorials.

The finished model, which is fully rigged and textured, weighs in at 8,380,430 polygons and thousands of individually modelled pieces.
Pretty insane shit really. Nothing is impossible with determination and a little bit of the crazy gene.

IMO someone who can model a car can also model a transformer ( since it's a robot in disguise.. as a car! )
