no, not really, in this case it was just temporary. (there was a reason for the December challenge) But i just did it to see if the details or difference in Geometry would come out any better, its not my final choice of colors or ne thing. THanks! Hope to be posting an update on the guy in a bit.

very nice work mate, the only bit i dont like is the launcher bits at the bottom , maybe sometimes you can have just to much detail where a nice smooth would have looked appropriate.

but very nice brian

DAMN dude that is Sweet. user added image

Can't believe how fast you work also.

Had a suggestion about your chair compartment. I was thinking maybe you could have it in a way so that there is no chair, but instead make it an area for the guy to stand in it and control the machine.

Just a thought.

Also, you have to rig this guy and show a short clip of him in action. user added image

:wow:

I agree with the standing thing. In my head, the guy stands inside, and when he lifts his leg, (somehow connected to the machine) computers would tell the mech to move its leg. Get it? Im loving it!

The bosters need to be the came color. And mabey smooth instead of rigged.
