Thanks for you all! Arran, I never give up! But as I said on my first posts, I have some unfinished business to solve with myself... and so, I'm trying to do all the things I need at the same time!!! :eek3: But don't worry, I believe next week I'll give continuity to this project!

Ha Ha! Good on you jramauri! I didn't think you would let us down. Hope you manage to sort everything out. Looking forward to seeing the next stage.

After a long time without updates, I'mback. I'm not going to do a transformation clip now, because the robot trasformation process is clear to me (I think!). I'll do a clip just if I have time near the end of challenge. For now, I'm doing a colorful definitive sketch of my robot, to give myself I good idea about his details and final appearence. Next, I'll do another, for the vehicle.

Thanks for your nice words, guys! Pbman, I use Photoshop and my Wacom tablet to do my paintings.
Well, I don't want waste more time, and then let's go straight to the Maya! I'm doing my sketches while I'm modeling, so I can understand better my model, and the process gets faster.
Here are my first refinements on the model:

More to come.

this probably asked in these forums a thousand times but anyway, how do you get the wireframe on your renders?

Thanks fellows.
13th_resident: I made two renders, one using Mental Ray, another using Maya vector. Then I composite on Photoshop.
No updates by now... :shakehead But I hope get back for this project this week yet.
