Repair Bot

Postby Yodaman921 » Wed Mar 18, 2009 4:16 pm

After a couple of days work, I made a robot that basically would do repairs. (I'm going to place a couple of them with different colors in the tech room of my starship.)

Looks good ;) But his 'hand' on the R-side looks a bit small, or is it the camera?

Thanks, as for the claw, it is somewhat small, but the angle makes it look smaller than it really is since it is sorta tilted at the camera. Also, I was going for something simple, since usually people get caught up on making things looked detailed and perfect that it ends up looking either really good or really bad, so I went with something easy and simple that I thought would look nice. I might change the color from light blue to orange though, or maybe yellow, since I'm going to place him in my starship so there is going to be around three of him and I will probably do different colors on each.

Right hand/claw seems too small. But Wow! that looks really good!
Statement: I recommend meatb- I mean, MASTERS watch for news on star wars: Nocturnal. It looks to be a good holofilm.

Looks very nice, good work man, Hope its all rigged :) Oh, one thing, the body/torso section is very hollow, where is its tin heart like on wizard of oz? D: Oh and again with the claw, very small, i suggest you make the end of his arm a device which many different tools can be attached to for different situations and to help make each robot you make a bit more unique then the other ones (a different tool per robot)

Very nice.
I do have a question, though.
How do you get it so smooth? Like the cubes in his feet, do you just bevel the crap out of it or is there something else you're doing?

I"m guessing, subsurf, bevel , set smooth, high osa, or a combination from these

Well for his 'toes' I simply have the cubes subdivided 2 times, the there are 4 verts on an edge, and then they are simply connected using the center square on the faces that are across from each other (the joints) . Then they are simply subsurfed around 2, and set smooth.
