Haven't decided where to go with this yet... gotta go somewhere though.

The cylinders that are just kinda chillin on the sides (groups of 6) are going to eventually be soft body cords.

It's getting difficult coming up with the details.. ;)

clean modelling dude..keep it up.. ;)

Elyu · 03-05-2007, 10:27 AM

What's this????Can u tell me what's its fuction??
But the model is nice. :)

phix314 · 03-05-2007, 07:41 PM

thanks guys...

it's eventually going to be some sort of robot ... machine... somethin'. It's fun not having a plan of action.

any ideas you might have for an "ankle" joint? I'm thinkin about having it be a ball joint considering that would allow for the most range of free motion, but not sure that it would be strong enough for something like this (if it were real...) I'm open to ideas.

*hint hint*

I see.So do u want to make the texture 4 it?? It'll be very nice. :)

phix314 · 03-07-2007, 04:37 PM

oh yea. it'll be all textured and whatnot when it's either completely done or I might texture as each piece is completed.

phix314 · 03-07-2007, 06:05 PM

I think I've honed the primary layout. Now onto the ankle joint and lower leg.

phix314 · 03-08-2007, 01:41 AM

Update. I have the idea of how I want the ankle to work, shown here. I need to, and will, add some small, low detail support toes on the back hopefully tomorrow and also get crankin' on the lower leg.

Elyu · 03-08-2007, 08:27 AM

wow!!!
U'R geat, it's very nice the model. :)

phix314 · 03-08-2007, 04:41 PM

Thanks man. :)

-update-

I'm happy with it so far. Gonna take a lunch break and work on getting the leg in order.

e-m-i · 03-08-2007, 05:10 PM

it's perfect! keep it up! there are so much details...

phix314 · 03-08-2007, 07:54 PM

big thanks e... :)

this is a sloooow process for sure. anyways, here's the last update for the night.

catch everyone tomorrow!

phix314 · 03-10-2007, 12:48 AM

I'm not sure about this design... but I'll work on it later. Modeling this thing isn't a problem, it's the freakin concept that is givin me a bad time. Anyway, lemme know what you think.

I think I need to start upping my FG number and messing with the filter size... as you can see some of the edges are a little funky, and I know it's not the alias settings. Yaaaay for render times!! :eek:

how do you come up with this stuff?! i couldn't imagine something so complicated in hundred years! do you sketch for yourself or do you just improvise?
