Description I wanted to do a robot/ android design that would look like it would actually work. Like, the body structure and parts ( pistons, engines, etc) that would actually power the robot.

Line art and 2 hours in photoshop.

EDIT:: July 1st 2010

Posted this on Kongregate.com last year, and a user named Xandaross came up with a cool backstory for it, and I thought I'd post it.

"The Arogloam battlefield has remained littered with rubble decades after the last battle of the Ten Year Wars. Passerby have often reported sightings of an ancient Mk VII combat automata, apparently lost in contemplation."

Very good, although the head is a little too reminiscent of the xenomorph from ALIEN for your purposes, I think.

Also, could a waist that skeletal really support the upper body? The overall upper body looks as though it lacks the necessary shock absorption to avoid damage from the jostling inherent in bipedal walking.

Still, an awesome pic!

Hah, this was actually before I saw Alien for the first time.

This is an old piece, but I'm taking an anatomy class right now, and the skeleton is one strong, well-engineered machine. Of course muscles help absorb shock, but the skeleton is strong enough to support itself. I do agree that there is something lacking in his upper half, maybe I should revisit this guy someday.

Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio; a fellow of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy; he hath borne me on his back a thousand times; and now, how abhorred in my imagination it is! My gorge rises at it. Here hung those lips that I have kissed I know not how oft. Where be your gibes now?

I really love your style. It is very cool. Keep it up man. I also like the fan-art Zelda characters you did. You should do more!

Thanks man! I have only 2 zelda enemies left, then it's the 7 bosses, then Link and Zelda.

bravo robophile here, and it looks damn good to me, i especially like the work you put into the back chest and head, the mix with human anatomical and mechanical components is always a neat way to go, i'd love to see more of these guys ^^

P.S. the human skull 'irony'( if that word works there) is awesome/funny xD

You might want to erase some of the pencil lines. And what happened to the reflection of the skull?

I was going to do the reflection, but i decided not to do it, It looked too busy.
