Hello everyone. I wanted to start a new project for my portfolio. I also wanted to try something new for a change. kinda burned out from modeling hard surface stuff all the time.

So my project will be based on a concept that was designed by an artist named Aaron Beck. He posted an image of a robot concept on his blog. I was really impressed by the concept and I wanted to take it a step further and turn it into a 3d model.

These pictures are from a couple of days ago. I have made some updates which I will post tonight or tomorrow.






here is the original concept

Just a small update. I finished the shoulder straps last night. also worked on the revolver screwgate. I think I spent too much time modeling that small part but it came out pretty cool. ( screw gate was modeled in cad) I dont think a robot would ever really need one. It was included in the concept so I modeled it anyway.

ver nice rendering .. not a fan of the robot design initially ,
but somehow . it's starting to grow on me :-)

Thank you Christophe. Im really glad you like the design!


I made some more small parts. still lots to do for the vest. Pouches and buckles, etc...

[Bushmaster]

Worked on the cop bot last night some more. Just little things like straps, buckles.worked the vest and started the back part of the vest.



I also experimented with another "head" I think it looks pretty cool. The arms were meant for the Huntsman model that is on the back burner at the moment.

Not a big update. Just worked on the vest some more and started experimenting with ncloth for the first time. I really enjoy ncloth. My only regret is that I did not discover it earlier

the pouches are my first cloth sim. I didn't setup up the cloth too well so the effect is not perfect. but I can work with it for now.

started torso and legs. And I have the shoulders blocked out which was the hardest part of the project so far. Mainly because I had to deal with the collision issues.

Great work!

The new head design really fits a lot better than the old. When thinking of standing in front of these things, i would have a LOT respect. The old head design however looked ... harmless or friendly, donīt know why. My personal opinion.

Keep it on!

[Bushmaster]

Thanks Traxx, glad you like the new head design


heres a small update on the project.
