I hate it when the have "perfect" soldiers that just act like a robot, walk around just shooting people (with no cover, just walking around like its nothing), and has super powers.
hah! i have 2 of these action figures i bought at kid robot in sf last time i was there =D keep goin man, but u got alota very good designs to compete with!
Yo, guys! Here is another update. This time I modeled MkII robot from Metal Gear Solid 4. Still need to put a little more love into it and finish some stuff. cheers.
I dont care about story, i only want to shoot stuff! The UT3 site was updated A lot of nice Concepts, especially the robots designs are awesome. http://www.unrealtournament3.com/us/index.html
The movement of the eye and skin around it is amazing - really, really lifellike. The subtle stretches and sliding of the skin really helps to sell it better than the rigid, robotic feel you normally see in faces in cinematics.
+1 Read the book/poem. The imagery is much different. Its like they took the name and used if for something else entirely using name recognition. I can give another example of that.. I Robot. :(
Yeah, I know the one you mean, same model, turned into a robot, a minotaur , a dragon and a demon or something like that. I'll be damned if I can find it through a forum search or google though.
Walks looking good, the arms do look a touch robotic they both start and leave their positions at the same time, try offsetting the motion a couple of frames on one of the arms should give it a more natural look :)
Just a quick question on the robot : Did you model it from a reference? If so, how. I ask because it is one of my weak spots and I am horrible at modeling from 1 or no references. Thanks!
