Description EDIT: Grr, DevArt is being evil with the preview again.

'Tis my next project. I cannot get it to look right AT ALL. Transferring 2d into 3d is freakin hard with DoGA. I might try to get better with Metasequoia and actually try to MODEL something. To make matters worse, my mouse is acting screwy, making it very hard for precise movement. Oh well, enough ranting.

Ok, I know, it's legless. But I was hoping for some feedback on what I have now. Just ignore the colors. Texture too, I just did that because you can't define it on flats. Prolly will re-do the shoulders completely. Still needs some tweaking and detail too... ah well.

looking nice so far... but is the color scheme actually going to be like that? I think all this gray makes it look bland

Oh hell no, just the prototype. I'm kinda undecided on the final colors for now. Still needs some serious work, I haven't even finished the legs entirely. (damn spyware making my comp crash <_<

whoa, nice stuff again. Actually, I think the shoulders are fine...they don't hafta be small. sometimes mechs look better with big shoulder armor.

It still looks good though...but you -need- to make the torso bigger! it's crumble under all the weight

O_O

hehe. good stuff.

Actually, the shoulder are supposed to be huge. They just don't look right... As for the torso, it should look better once the legs are done. It's based off a concept sketch I did ages ago, and looked ok there. I'll try to upload if I can find it....

Thank ya. ^_^

Hands? Well, I just take a rectangle. That becomes the back essentially. Then I add a few more shapes to bring the palm out some. Fingers are simple, but a pain to position right. For this one, I just took three parts, and arranged them on the hand to look like fingers. Then I selected the three parts and copied it till I had all my fingers. Then I took the same two pieces and shrunk them a little and made the thumb. I usually get the hand out of proportion, so I select it all and scale it. Lastly add some more squares and stuff to the back of the hand to make it more interesting. For different poses I just rearrange the fingers. The dovens fingers are more complex, as I added black joint pieces inbetween the segments.

oooh, I think I used many words to say a little. O_o It's not really that hard, just time consuming. Getting the fingers right CAN be a pain...
