Buddy, I've been using this picture as wallpaper for some time. It is just awesome. By far the best rendering from this "beast" I've ever seen.
I started working on a wallpaper using this image and the other one, and would like to sent it to you through e-mail before uploading to Deviant - if that's ok.

*Slaps forhead* Shoot I forgot to ask. How did you make that texture for that dome part? I really would like to know

Hey man, yep the front looks plain, but thats how the original design is, which i kinda prefer, to many mech's/robots these days have stuff planted all over them with no meaning or sense which i try and avoid, the older sci-fi stuff works best for me, large plain areas, leaving other concentrated areas of detail where it needs it and makes sense.
The top/head material was pretty straight forward, i took a carbon fibre texture and reduced the whites in it to start and tiled this over the whole object, dublicated this and made a blend shader, the second shader ( the overlay ) was exactly the same but had more dirt and noise, then applied a mask to this on another uv channel to mask it out in areas, both layers has some slight displacement added also to give it that lumpy more depth feel ( using the original carbon fibre texture ), specular/reflections was simply a fresnel falloff set quite high but which glossy reflections enabled to give it more of a shiney matte feel (rubber ), hope this helps, thats the workflow for max anyways, i know maya would be very similar to this, but a layered shader would have to be set up, then linking up together using uv-centric stuff and so on.

Oh I love the texture and the bump map for the dark dome part. But I have to say the crautch area looks too plain or something. Like it needs something

Need higher rez for wallpaper!
Awesome, though.
And, for critique, I agree with ~martinroger , the wires look too clean in comparison (And exposed. Ew. 
AH well. Still looks good.

Awesome ! I am not as sure about the guns as are the other commenters... my concern would rather be about the wires. They look very clean, compared to the rest of the mech.
Glad to see you back.
