So the plan with this guy. Full project all the way through as my portfolio needs some new personal art and much more textured objects.
WORLD WAR ROBOT - LARGE MARTIN
Some presentation / mood ideas
Summary
I've been a fan of Ashley Wood's work forever now and finally getting around to getting one of the robots from the World War Robot series modeled out. So I picked the Large Martin version. He's a monster and the paint variations on this guy are fantastic.
The series consists of vinyl toys, comics and art books with Woods oil paintings in them. As such the paintings are very loose and don't focus on the details too much. Same with the toys. So I plan on adding some extra pieces to help assemble the models and add to them.
My plan for this piece:
- Make a nice High Poly with a few extra pieces
- Zbrush work on the pouches and possible variant versions (want to keep the damage on the main body to a minimum as I want to paint variations on the paint scheme)
- Small Environment (diorama) for him to be displayed in
- Break down of workflow (rendering, texturing, etc) along with streaming on livestream
- Build and assemble scene out in UDK
Streaming from my livestream will be at http://www.livestream.com/thejessemoody

So heres a bit more progress. Working mainly on the gun area and the ammo container. The toys always leave some details missing for the obvious reasons so I'm trying to add in some details that will help sell this guy.
Thanks to everyone for watching and hope you enjoyed it. Should be doing more work on this guy later...

so if it has no fingers on its arms to open the little satchels then i assume it would a support bot for the field troops?

Yeah he's more of an artillary type guy. Softens up the forces for the smaller robots and troops to move in. He's a slower moving guy. His hands are these huge mashing things for defense up close but that is about it.

The bags turned out good as you've got them here. I remember you deleting your first try on your livestream the night before last, haha.
It's been fun watching you lately. (I've just been an anonymous spectator).
