Hello everybody! I created a robot warrior guy. Before I pose this model and texture it, I would like to hear some suggestions on what I can do to make this model look better.

Model:

It's hammer and shield:

Any suggestions are welcome.

    You're going to want to open up the jetpack burners' socket a lot wider if you want this robot to look like it could get vertical thrust.

    Nice design. I could see this as an enemy in a Final Fantasy game.

    There are three things that jumped out at me:

    1 ) The jets would only let it go backwards, incinerating its arms as it does so

    2 ) The head is a totally different style than the rest of the bot, and really doesn't look like it's even from the same culture or tech base.

    3 ) The proportions look a mite awkward. Maybe making the legs and arms (especially the arms) a bit longer would give it a more graceful feel.

    Hey thanks for the feedback. I'll think about those suggestions about the back and the wing boosters. To give you guys a perspective on what style I'm aiming for, this mech is run on magic. The circuits on the armor will eventually show streams of a magical substance. It's meant to be made from an ancient but advanced technology. I drew some inspiration from Xenoblade and a bit of Digimon just to show you what I mean:

    All right! I updated this guy. I decided to trade off his wing boosters for more angelic wings and gave this guy one jet instead of two.
