Hi everyone. For this challenge we want you to model a cartoon type robot. What we don't want is highly detailed mech's. It clearly needs to be a cartoon or toy styled robot. This should be a lot of fun and well within the reach of most members. Sketch and Toon renders highly recommended but not essential. Judging will be on the overall style and look of the robot. So a highly detailed robot may not win. We're looking for cool looking robots or cute looking robots like the one above.

The top 3 images will receive a Challenge award ribbon and also have their image featured in the Gallery (once I've repaired the gallery)

Now the rules:

Judges for this challenge: Cafe Staff.

1. Deadline: Midnight Pacific Standard (North America), Friday, 12th March 2010.
2. No time limit i.e. take as long as you like to do the modelling and texturing.
3. No imported models / meshes / scenes.
4. Members can enter multiple times.
5. The Cafe judges reserve the right to disallow any entry if in their opinion the entry contains objectionable, offensive material or blatant advertising.
6. PhotoShop post work is not permitted nor the use of other applications such as modo or Z-Brush for displacement maps. It has to be modelled and rendered in C4D or using a C4D renderer like Vray etc.
7. Maximum image size is 1280 x 1024. Please compress your jpeg images. Anything over 400kb is too big. (New attachment sizes.)
8. At least one WIP image in wireframe and solid render are required as a reply to this thread. The wireframe render should be done as a Cel render and with hypernurbs disabled. Check out our cel rendering tutorial here if you don't know how to do one. Disable hypernurbs in the cel renders so that we can see the polygon construction.Please keep the Cel renders as Black lines on White background.
9. No remote hosting of images. All images to be uploaded to the Cafe. Just press the "add this attachment" button to upload each image.
10. Only one final rendered image and one only wireframe image are required for your final entry. Hypernurbs must be disabled in the wireframe. We want to see the polygon construction.
11. All final entries must be made in the proper "Final entry" thread locate here.
12. You cannot use models etc that you have previously modelled. You must start everything new and specifically for this challenge.

Good luck and have fun.
3DKiwi

definitely looking forward to this one! so awesome!

This should produce some fantastic work, I'm already looking forward to seeing what everyone comes up with. What's the betting someone models Bender from futurama?

Good luck everyone

Jim

i never thought of that..

wow , nice challenge .. think i`m going to enter :P

Here's my start.

Jim

Smash Jim?

Smaaaassssssh!
Sweet idea.

Morph

Not quite, it's going to be a couple of different things I've seen rolled into one. Smash being one of them.

Jim

thats a nice start Jim , looking forward to see it finished.

Here is a start!

A vague idea at the moment.

Quick update, Looks like James and Ashton are off to a good start. Nice work guys.

Jim

Here my progress so far.

I've still to do a fair bit to the body but this is the approximate proportions. I might even get this finished. Fingers crossed.

Another update.

cool challenge looks like it be alot of fun

You guys had to do this after I finished my Robot Devil, eh? ;) No worries. Off to work!

Also: In before fifty Wall-E posts

Does a cartoon style iron man count? :D

Someone could try Gir from Invader Zim lol

Quote

Maybe

Glad everyone likes the theme. This should be a lot of fun.

3DKiwi

Here's my wip. Still quite a way to go...

Walter

I was watching my nephew one day, and he started to make his robot from boots. So here is my quick sketch!

A beautiful subject, serious tuna to give a little him more time to obtain something of better quality

Early WIP from the robot I've dubbed, 'Dilbot'.

Here's my update, there or there abouts with the modelling of this guy. Going to set up some Xpresso to help with positioning, then textures and a scene.

Really liking what I'm seeing so far. Love yours owadesign, reminds me of my kids running round the house arms flying everywhere, and driving me mad!!

Jim

must say i like this idea.... gonna try and see it to the end

im going for a cool look

I'd love to do Robot Chicken but I don't know if I'm clever enough. I might just have to give it a shot.

Great work here already, keep going guys!

If I was entering I think I'd have a go at Gir from Invader Zim.. a couple of cones with bend deformers would have his legs done

Cheers,
Brian

moving through this swiftly

this is what i got so far :P

hi evreone

i am looking folward to the next chalenge,

lewis

Looking good lexmark.

Can't really show much of an update, but Xpresso is now set up with 53 sliders to position him in verious place.

Jim

here is my start ..
hehe it's stupid

I'll certainly enter this one, I need to make one anyway for school, might as well just enter it here

Looking foward to seeing further entries.

sounds like a good one w/ lots of room for interpretation....here is my first wip




jim'reaper -- looks like you're programming a brain for yours! ;-)
wish I could do xpresso :-(

I might have to go with Brians idea of Gir.. love that lil guy :D.. possibly might customize him a bit :D

Thanks
Adam

here my entry so far..
apologies if the topology isn't that good but i am 17 and new to 3d modeling :D.
i haven't got hyperNURBS on the eyes i just used the primitives and magnet tool which is why they are so high poly.
tell me what ya think :D its my first real attempt at a 3d model.

thanks, puffal

Hi Puffal, welcome to the Cafe

Your robot looks good so far, nice work.

I think the emphasis here is on an appealing model rather than a really detailed one, so you're on the right track.

Cheers,
Brian

gonna be working on the cuteness soon

Well here's my first WIP everyone, basic body done now jus for the details =].. Bit high poly though :S.. Ahwell :D..

Welcome to the cafe Puffal!.. Awesome head you've got there :D

Thanks
Adam

just like to say,
thanks for all the kind words,
i have added a mouth body and legs to the robot now however i am not too happy with them,
ill post up some pictures tomorrow and you guys can tell me what you think :D

thanks,
Nick

Think ill post some wips for this challenge too, I never seem to finish tho lol, im going for a bigweld-esqe robot.

Here's a little update, still got a positioning to do and props to make.

Here's the caption that goes with it.

"Mr Reaper, in my proffessional opinion, you have a screw loose!"

Jim

Guess you're doing the same robot as Horganovski FunkyMonkey...
Great stuff Jim!

Morph

Looks cool Funkymonkey, glad someone else is an Invader Zim fan like me
That show was ahead of its time in the way they used 3D for a lot of the space scenes, this was well before Futurama did the same thing.

Cheers,
Brian

Here's my Robot Chicken so far. Don't know if this will work out or not lol. Never used S&T before. Will have to play around.

Just wondering if we're allowed to use photoshop or painter for textures or bodypaint only?

wip2..."danger, Will Robinson!"

Well I was going to try Claptrap from Borderlands but I felt a certain obligation to make this instead
I hope it qualifies as a cartoon robot

more chicken...

Soundwave - I think we can live with this. Just don't go over board and turn it into a mech.

Some mighty fine entries folks. Well done.

The Bat and Ball Challenge judging should be finished by tomorrow. The judges have all been bust lately.

3DKiwi

ok i think ive pretty much finished... worked too fast to post up many WIP's :D

Im in too. Dont know yet where this will go. Well see

here is my update to my robot,
not to sure on the legs though, don't know if they suit it to well
tell me what ya think XD
thanks,
nick

I'm starting to crave fried chickin'

Some great ones coming along. Here is a quick scribble now for some C4d.

Jason

i think i am nearly there now,
i apologize for not posting many WIP's, but most of it was done at college where i couldn't get an internet connection for some reason
i was modeling it and couldn't decide on a pose to do,
therefore i thought i would tie it in with the winter olympics that are going on at the moment.
but obviously he is a robot so he isnt to good on the snow :D
hope you like it so far, no idea what to do on it yet though,
thanks
nick

was just watching 3dkiwi's tutorial on how to do a chrome material and found a way to get better renders :D
so i thought i would upload it :D
thanks 3dkiwi :D
nick

As far as I'm concerned there can only be one Robit (spelled correctly).

Simple model so here it is all in one post..

Head..


Body..


Final..

Messing around with colors and testing renders.

Started yesterday.

Nearly there.

My try...

Think I'll enter this but should have read the rules before I got so far, anyhoo still got some tweeking to do, and some sort of scene, no idea what tho :S

Please feel free to offer critiques, am still a noob at cinema so all feedback is welcomed.

Wow, some nice work there already. Heres a minor udate of mine. Im redoing the legs and im not really happy with the arms yet.

my entry sofar..
i still need to finnish the legs and boots,and maybe change the hands, and then make little more details

Hi, all.

This could be fun.

Here's the start of my effort.

- Charles

Hey everyone, some really nice work coming along, here's WIP 2 of mine, don't know how I can make his mouth though any suggestions?

Thanks
Adam

Looks good Funkymonkey. For the mouth I'd select the four polys where the mouth area would be, do a very small inner extrude, a small regular extrude inwards and then a bigger regular extrude inwards to get the depth. The reason I do the small ones first is to tighten up the geometry in that area if smoothing the final model with HNurbs.

Cheers,
Brian

I wasn't feeling safe with my first entry (still working on it though) So I made this little guy just in case. Still have some modeling to do, I was just experimenting with some poses.

Nice work.. cool pose on the one on the platform.

Cheers,
Brian

coming along

Thanks Horganovski I like that pose better too. Now I'm thinking of what scene to use here's a potential robot army scene lol

Trying one more.

One more render.

Added few more major elements and getting the proportion right.

Robots are so much fun to do. So here is my start. I did a quick comp in Sketchbook pro and then started modeling Not much to look at the moment. Great stuff everyone!!

Here's a bit of an update, just playing about with lighting and rendering. The robots, seats and table are normal render, but as you can see the background is sketch and toon. Thought it was pretty good to bring the 2 types of render together.

Jim

Heres an update for the moment

Here's my robot chicken so far. Having second thoughts tho, since it seems a bit complicated for this contest and maybe not cartoonish enough. There are some really good entries!

Amazing work everyone. Well done

3DKiwi

we did say "cartoon *or* toy styled robot", correct? ;-)

here is wip3

Amazing work indeed.. you guys are going to make this a tough one to judge

Really like the Robot Chicken one (it's alive!)and Naubles entry.

Cheers,
Brian

designbytes - Your "Lost in Space" robot is fine. I even eluded to it in the Challenge title. Perhaps not entirely what we had in mind. Just don't over do the detail. Perhaps do a S&T render to make it look more cartoon like.

3DKiwi

Well guys here's my next WIP finished Gir now jus gunna make the environment =]

Thanks
Adam

Thought I'd have a crack at another idea I had, so here's a start. Doesn't look to good at the moment, hopefully it'll get better as I go along.

Jim

Experimenting render and texturing.

Bit of an update!

And another update, seems to have come together better than I thought it would do.

Jim

Hi, all.

Looking good everbody

Here's stage two of mine, after about 2 hours of work.

- Charles

Things seem to be going swimmingly here. Im kind of liking the outcome. Anyway Here is my update. Ill have time to do lots today. LOTS TO DO.
NICE JOB EVERYBODY!!!!

Hi, my work...
Question: Can I use photoshop or bodypaint for create textures, or I must use only shaders?

Haha well I thought I would give it a shot I call him RoboClown. here is my "Try" at it... Although i dont know how to do the other render.. A few things i couldnt figure out was how to connect my hands and how to make legs. I wanted to do some clown shoes, but wasnt sure where to start on that. Either way not to bad for having the program for only a few weeks :D

Josh

SuperVee, on 03 March 2010 - 05:15 PM, said:

My WINNER!! :P

TheJimReaper and Nauble - Oh wow!! This is just what we had in mind for this challenge. Excellent work.

Nigel / 3DKiwi

reckon ill have another go at this, the first time round was waaaaay fun :D

progress...

Here's my second attempt. After what I thought wasn't a very good start for this one, I think it turned out pretty well, and the more I look at it the more I like it.

Don't think I need to add any more to this?

Your's is coming on really well Nauble, love it.

Jim

So the Modeling Continues. I got the feet done and starting to do the hands and adding details .

Im pretty happy with the results so far.

Heh heh, really nice work. Plenty of grip with those feet

Cheers,
Brian

Some great work here. You should all be very proud.

Cool challenge.

Heres another quick update added hands finally and some details before posing him out.

Then its time to work on the BG

i am basically done now
i know its standard shaders but i have no idea how to uv map and all that stuff,
i wish i did as this could a 1000 x better if i knew but o well.
hope you guys like it :D
cheers
nick

Hey all again. I did some other renders from the Side and front. So here they are.

Great work nauble, looks like he could get up to some right mischief.

Jim

thanks, The more i look at him, the more he reminds me of Humpty Dumpty. I think i need to put him on a wall or something.

Well, here's my latest. Not sure whether I like S&T or regular.

Thought I'd have another go.......

@ nauble - at least if he falls off the wall you can put him back together again, unlike humpty!!

@ supervee - Think I prefer the S&T version best. Great work.

Jim

I am still trying to connect all the parts.

@Supervee Sketch and Toon one is a better render.
@Ridix Great modelling, very clean mesh.

Morph

Here's an update to mine i finally poses him out and started to add details now. I decided to stay with the original idea.

@nauble: really nice!

@supervee: my vote for the non-S/T.......I think you did a great job with your standard render, lighting and materials to make the jump from "photo real" to more stylized....same to nauble.

it looks like 99% of what s/t is doing for you is just the "inking" line around the your model - you could do the same thing in 10 minutes with a photoshop layer, wacom pen, and "hand" drawing the line

i tend to find most s/t renders pretty gimmicky - kinda like the 'water color' effect in photoshop - but maybe thats cuz I don't own it! ;-)

designbytes, on 06 March 2010 - 07:13 AM, said:

But remember that photoshop post aint allowed in the cafe comps, so S&T is one of the only ways to go. You could however use a very clever fresnel shader too to get quite a fun outline effect.

Morph

I can see the judges will be stripped to the waist again to battle this one out next week. Maybe we should sell tickets.

Great characters guys, keep them coming.

Alan.

Just a little update......

If you have Rel 11.5 you can do limited image editing to your image using the "Filter tab" In the Picture Viewer. If you enable filter you can control the Saturation, Brtightness, Contrast, Exposure and The Gamma of your Render. Its a nice addition to AR. But i think it only exist with Rel 11.5 and not earlier versions of C4D.


Use it as a tool and not a crutch to enhance your renders.

You can do limited post effects in earlier versions but they have to be rendered out with the image if I remember correctly, so there isn't much tweaking unless you keep rendering out the still again and again.

Morph

 Supervee, isn't that the "Robot chicken" we can see in the intro of RobotChickens videos?

Around 00:18 here: http://www.youtube.c...h?v=GM5ZtM3a_54

Yep. That's Robot Chicken.

Morph

Cool! I was pretty sure I had seen it somewhere before 

morpheus, on 06 March 2010 - 07:30 AM, said:

...yeah...I was wondering that too..or some odd multi-pass render combo techniques that only the c4d wizards know about...

If you do a multipass render however, how are you going to composite them together if no external applications are allowed to be used.
Hehe.

Morph

So im working on the bg element at the moment here is what i have so far. I dont have any of the deformers or displacement on yet for quicker renders.

Nauble,
I really like the textures you have for your Bot. If you don’t mind me asking, is it a effect from a type of render or is it just creative materials? And another quick question, how did you do the dude on the poster and the guys on the blanket. Either way awesome looking robot!!!

-Josh

No Problem, Its all Textures that i've either collected or created. The Bot has 2 textures applied to it. One is the base which is Color, Lumiance and Specular applied. The other is a dirt texture using the Fusion shader and the Alpha channel. The Bot on the wall is one i created and rendered and then texture mapped it to a plane. Finally the Bed spread was an image pattern i found on some textile site. I thought it was pretty cool.

Thanks for the Complements This has been a really fun challenge, as they all are.

Cheers
NA

Brilliant render nauble.
You could prob up the subdivisions of the model a bit though to get some nicer curves around the eyes, etc...

Morph

Thanks, Actually I didn't enable the hypernurbs yet in this render mainly for render time. I also have a displacement for the teddybear that not active as well. The next render will have the hypernurbs active for the bot and bedspread and the displacements active.

Boheme, yes, that is my poor version of Robot Chicken. My hats off to the original artist. I love me some robot chicken lol.

PS: Thanks for the kind compliments guys. High praise!

Came up with a scene hope its okay...
Trying the make the best with the cel render to make it look a little cartoonish, I don't have S&T. :(

i thing im gettig in this it look fun

1st wip

Quick update, still far from finished, but it's gettin' there.:D

Well i think im almost done. I want to add a few more details, Here is the original sketch and what i've come up with since then.
Its been a lot of fun!!!

another progress

Wow, some seriously cool robot images being posted!!

3DKiwi

Well Everybody this was a fun challenge i think im finished enough to post to the Entry folder. Here is my final image. I added some toys in the box and finally turned on the Displacement on the bear. I also add DOF. Im pretty happy with the final image.


Great Job everybody and Good Luck!!! Once again its been a Blast...


CHEERS

NA

Hi Everyone,

Here's my shot at the robot challenge. Thanks for the help getting this going! This forum is making learning C4D considerably less daunting and these challenges are a great way to push people to try new things.

There are some nice models in this thread, I look forward to seeing some more of them.

andrewgene - well done. Just make sure that you post this in the final entry thread.

3DKiwi

Starting to play around with texture.

Hi All,

Coming in a bit late but at least I get the benefit of seeing what's been done so far. Awesome work.

My first WIP attached. It's not meant to be Bender.

C

haven't had a lot of time to work on it.....

Some great work in here already. :-)

I thought I'd upload another version with sketch & toon. I don't know which one I like better, the S&T one or the GI one...

b a s

Started new robot.

This is my first challenge entry, hope I'm doing it right. These are my WIP's, my robot inspired by the 80's movie "Batteries Not Included" I think it was called...mine is just a more polished, modern, chunky-armed version.

I couldn't resist i had to do one more. Simpler this time.

Hi everybody, a great challenge! My two Robots:

First Post so not sure how to. Can only see reply button but no 'post' button, so to speak.
This is a little robot I found down on his luck so I invited him to join your line up of prospective candidates.
He is a friendly little tyke and needs a bit of cheering up.

Really great stuff. I love these challenges, even if I rarely enter. It's inspiring to see what people are coming up with at the drop of a hat.

WIP2:

My robot wishes to point out that he was a microwave model. If anybody out there has a pie or TV meal needing heating up please feel free to make use of him. Also I must point out his timer is kaput but he will make polite conversation while you wait.
Nice work Carixpig!
Good to see I am not alone. Hope the cafe gets a bit busier!

Thanks Bluntpencil, noice one yourself.

Here are more WIPs for my guy but I was having trouble getting my Cloner Objects to render properly, both in the picture viewer and the viewport. I was using an instance of my cloner object in the right arm, which was causing the problem. Hopefully my mistake saves someone some time on a project some other time.

morpheus, on 06 March 2010 - 11:09 AM, said:

Body Paint is no externa application, isn't it?

I really like your robot's 'sensible shoes'.
I am really new to C4d and stuck with the demo on G4 mac mini. Lol!
Because the competition asks for a cartoon robot I like to think more on the character of the creation rather than the technical aspect. Hope I got the right idea.
I hope you dont mind me asking but what is your pc like? Quad core etc?
Or are there other people with ancient equipment as well?

NICE!!! Lots and Lots of ROBOTS!!!!! anyway here is a day of fun. I did a simple nerdy robot that I started last night .



Great Job everybody!!

Cheers

NA

All,
So I dont know what im doing :D but here is my entry so far! Im pretty happy with it. Im trying to make it so I can animate it :D But im pretty with the dude :D

Josh.

I think I need to make the arms shorter.. Might look better. Any suggestions welcomed.

Your Arms do look a little long if thats what your going for. It may help to block in the entire character first to get the proportions to your liking/

Nauble,
Great idea :D thanx

Josh

i dropped my other robot and went for a more cartoon style to, its almost finnished, just need to texture and maybe add some scenery..

Nerd challenge away. More WIPs, sensible undies.

i have to say, i LOVE the ideas coming through, theyre awesome!!!!! especially the nerd robot from nauble, that captures the essence of computer-simulated geek

Wow.Been looking at the finished section and there are some pretty impressive settings there.
See what I can rustle up.

robot finished, now shaders (or textures) and rendering, maybe modeling enviroment...
Can I use photoshop and bodypaint for textures?

Update.

There are some pretty smooth looking meshes on a lot of these models. I always have trouble getting smooth edges after doing a Boole to get a hole.

The bot looks good, nice work.

Booles are always likely to give messy geometry. Worth a look at 3DKiwis 'Holes Booleans and more holes' tutorial for more info on this.


@ Predator - Bodypaint is fine, but I think PS would be against the rules, have a look at them again on page one to make sure.


Cheers,
Brian

Dear Predator.
I love your robot(also carixpig's) but as you can see I am just quantity,not quality.
Please could you explain or point out a good tutorial to create those lovely curvaceous breast plates. They are almost sculpted and fit your model perfectly.I dont mean the ball shaped err.. breasts but the shapes they are set into.
I would be ever so grateful if you could explain.
Thank you.
BP.

@Horganovski THX, I use only shaders.

@bluntpencil:It is sphere deformed in axis "Y" and rotate around 90° (see cel render)

Thank you for responding so quickly.


Sorry but I didnt mean the breasts, I meant the breast plates --the shapes that fit between the arms and the chest in the rib cage area.
You have one on the left and one on the right, together making up the rib cage area.
In English we call them BREAST PLATES. They cover the chest area on both men and women.
Why they are called Breast-plates instead of CHEST-plates I cant explain, English is a strange language.
I wasnt asking for the breasts, they are obvious to make!
Hope I have explained myself properly.
The shapes with the holes in them!
Thanks.

This looks like an a google image search of a toy robot on a dog. Nice work from a ref image.

Here are my to robots not finished yet.

@ freakerz: Very nice! Good details too

Loving all the entries. I'm struggling with this one not sure whether to go tuney or shiney......... ie Hanna–Barbera or Toy Story!

Love your entry doodleman, that's brilliant. Couldn't resist one last robot, just a quick and simple one.

Jim

Nice Job Everybody. I figured since im on hiatus at the moment why not do one more bot.

So here is the start to my Suction bot. Im not sure if ill be able to finish it.


Cheers

NA

@Jim Bots are Addicting aren't they

i made a second spider-bot (yes making bots is adictive :D )

and this is my scene so far, maybe ill tweak the lights a bit later

I couldn't resist a quick animation with my bot (Only a quicky just for fun:))



@freakerz, that scene with the spider-bot is great. I wish I had added more detail to my bot and not made him so toony.

Quick update to my suctionbot

Gosh, what fantastic creations from you ALL. My efforts will hopefully improve once I get used to all the terminology,tags and wotsits in C4D.
To speak honestly about c4dcafe you all are creating the sort of stuff I want to make and as a newcomer its good to see you all so good.
I had a closer look at the rules and apologise for cel rendering in the wrong colors.
I also noticed that you only post one or two pictures at the most each time.
I can only post at demo resolution,640 by 400, so cant get much detail in each shot.
Please point out to me if I am breaking any other rules, especialy the type of textures I am using.
Here is a different robot,an enforcer bot.
It points out who is at fault, then punches them!

Finished modelling, will chuck some textures on tomorrow. Quick and simply, but fun!

Jim

Well heres an update.


Cheers

NA

Looks great nauble - I love it how the walking mechanism actually works!

Great work Bluntpencil Feel free to post larger images so that it's easier to see things.

3DKiwi

After a whole day of modeling. Here is my third robot of this challenge. Not quite sure what ill do with him.

Must say there have been some great Robot designs this time around.

Excellent work Nauble. I prefer the Sketch and Toon version the best. You'll have to decide which version to post.

3DKiwi

In haste(work calls), thanx for the encouragement.
Unfortunately I only have c4d demo so limited to 640 x 400 but never mind, I will get C4D one day.
Some more of the same.
Enforcerbot is pointing out his e≈haust,spark plug and 2 stroke motor.
He is fully flexible ready for animation but I cant shoe that other than he can adopt any pose with ease.
I love Nauble's stuff amongst others.
Laters.

Horganovski, on 09 March 2010 - 02:29 PM, said:

I just read the rules and I see nothing there that prohibits building textures in Photoshop, etc. It just prohibits photoshop "post work";

in fact textures are pretty wide open except for sculpting displacement maps in zbrush, etc

do I read that wrong?

1 last entry, couldn't resist. Had loads of fun creating my own as well as watching everyone elses develop. Some outstanding work once again. Did I read in an earlier post someone was selling tickets to watch the judges fight it out whilst they decide who wins? I'll take 2 tickets and a £50 wager on Alan. Sorry Nigel, but he's closer to where I live plus he's got a bigger beating stick then yours.

Jim

Hi, tomorrow will diedline and I have not time for make enviroment...:-(

@bluntpencil: sorry, my English language isn´t good. At the weekend I will post here to you cel render of breast component..(It´s right?)

I´m hapy then I have finished yey´s material, it has been difficult for me.

@ Predator.
No problem. My Czech is much worse than your English!
Your Bot (robot, that is) looks wonderful.

Can we still put our pictures in tommorrow?
Or must it be by midnite tonite?

Yes, here is midnicht Last final render robot and I go sleep.

Good night all, from Enforcerbot.

Wow! These look great guys!
I just had a little fun with this... I think it looks cute :P

Hmmm....robots and cartoons. My 2 favorite things! I'm running out of time, but I have to get in on this one. Working on a concept now. Here's a first thought.

Some cool looking robots.

momo - welcome aboard. We really need to see a WIP image rather than the final image. i.e. a partially finished model

Hurry folks. Today is the last day. Make sure that you post your final render and wireframe in the final entry thread plus that you have posted at least one WIP (work in progress) image in this thread.

Look out for our Easter themed Challenge being announced tonight. This one should be a lot of fun.

3DKiwi

Ok, beginning of modeling, and quick test of toon shading style.

Oink
