I was bored and so decided to start on another, seeing as i had so much fun before. Yep, it's a robot. Very sketchy stages at the moment. I'm planning on having his lower arms like large cylinders, with large hands at the end. I'm not sure about the face yet, but it should be quite interesting.
Which pose do you prefer? If the second one, what should its other arm be doing? Also, crit about any other niggles you see. Edited by Larwick |

Alright, sweet. it does sort of look cooler. I've added some better hands and they look much better on the first (at least i think). (And yeah i'm sort of rushing through this a bit... but hey) Edited by Larwick |

Pose 1 looks a hell of alot more badass.
Hmmm, with the left upper hand, you should have a blue electric shock going from finger thingy to finger thingy. Edited by Souly |

Awesome idea Souly, i'll try that. What does everyone think of the head? Where should the eyes go? At the moment i'm thinking on the crease... Ok, although i do want this to have mainly my input... I am stumped at what colourscheme i should do it in.. Edited by Larwick |

the spikes on the shoulders are out of place... in fact there dont seem
to be any shoulder joints...How can he fight if he cant move his
shoulders? i would maybe broaden the shoulders and build a joint
between the torso and shoulder and some wires for the neck.
also, it looks like the head is behind its right shoulder, but that is behind the left arm, so the poe looks ackward. as for a color scheme.. maybe a redish brown for the wires and joints and the rest would be like a a white with orange detail... |

Maybe a red or green for wires and joints.
I agree with Murr on the White with orange detail. The shock is looking pretty good. |

Thanks all. And yes, i was going to fix the problem of the shoulders, but hey. I decided to make a few more concepts, and this is what i came up with. His waist is a bit buggered up but i'll fix that another time. And if there's weird curves in the joints, just imagine it's bendy material, not metal. It's friggin huge now, im not sure whether i should add a head, or just go back to the old one. |

I'd go with an upside-down bucket or something semi-silly like that.

I think it looks kind of cool right now, without a head. Like his chest and head are one piece.

Yeah Blick, it's a good idea. I think i might go with that. ^_^ ------------- Here we go, i went along the lines, and gave it a semi-head thing.
Gee, i feel so sad editing my post with all these updates. I just dont like bumping, i guess. Edited by Larwick |

Larwick those colors are great, the chest and head are amazing. I
would try changing the light blue to a radiant violet to pick up the orange hues of the body, then add some secondary violet over the shoulders. I have one problem with this guy and maybe its just me. From the waist down he's very feminine, the stance lof the legs seem "alluring" in a bad way for this piece and is not helped by the "high heels" he appears to be wearing, it could just be the curvyness of the thighs. I can't pinpoint it but I suggest you give it an objective view. |

Haha, good point jalonso. I was thinking earlier the legs didnt suit the body, but hey, i do quite like it. I might edit the feet later on to see if i can fix the high heel problem. And hey, it's an it, not a he. I'll also take your advice on the lighting. |

I'm loving this piece, but an you aa or selout some of your dark outlines? They just ruin it for me, especially on the 'sherbert sticks'.

Heh, the lower hand could make this a second installment of Hardcore Robot Facials! :D
Having the black outline (or near black) in places is alright, like in the shadows, but it's a good choice to use selout on parts with a highlight on them, like the sticks and arms. So far you've used good judgement on where to place selout. |

Yeah i should do later, although it might be a tad hard because for one thing it'll hit most of the same areas as the normal light.

but through experience i've noticed people finding random dithering a bit odd It looks fine when it's subtle enough like this. |

Ah, thats good. I still might change the feet, and have to do a tad more sellout etc. Also, theres the electricity and lighting from it to overcome... Gah, i definetely need the electricity, it looks like it's waving otherwise... Edited by Larwick |

Um, main one from top right, then probably a dim light from mid left... the feet just didn't look so good without highlights...

Hey mang. That's pretty awesome. Ok. First, I don't really like those little heels on its feet. What's up with those? Unless I'm looking at it wrong. But it doesn't really look like it's right on the ground with the way you made the feet. If they were on the ground, they'd be pointing back more.
And, is he supposed to be bending his knee forward? The way the feet are positioned makes him look like he's standing, but his legs are all positioned differently. Number three. The left leg seems devoid of lighting. Unless his whole body and everything is blocking the light, well, it just seems dark to me. Oh, and the tummy shading seems harsh without AA or whatever. |

Lol yes, unless i find myself dying of boredom more than usual one day i dont think i'll be bothering to finish the older draft such as that one Sibix. Well, i think i've finished. At least, i won't be obsessing over it any longer, so if there's anything you think should be changed it's unlikely i'll bother, for a while at least (unless i'm missing its leg or something) to change it. I thought i'd be amusing and rack up a quick little animation for ya'lls to see how i made it with: Ok, so less critisism now, more comments and personal likes/dislikes, although its probably best to be doing that in the gallery, so get in there! ^_^ Edited by Larwick |
