Will it be animated? I'm curious to see how you will handle the eyes seeing as how its metal but it looks like it has folds around the eyes.

Good luck, i suggest you do turnarounds, pose sheets etc. What is the end product of your labour? animation?

I feel the design could do with some work still, it seems over complicated while the sillhouete and forms could be progressed.

I don't plan to animate it because i'm not a proffesional animator to animate a complicated model like this ... i'm only trying to do a serious still image .

wholly crap that is dense user added image hehe

why smooth it now?

you should block out your model before you go into details so then you can get all the proportions right user added image




that's a "Ch" pronounced as a "K"

Computer skills I should have:
Objective C, C#, Java, MEL. Python, C++, XML, JavaScript, XSLT, HTML, SQL, CSS, FXScript, Clips, SOAR, ActionScript, OpenGL, DirectX
Maya, XSI, Photoshop, AfterEffects, Motion, Illustrator, Flash, Swift3D

the model looks good so far...

i think the top of the legs look a little weak to be able to support the body. The arms also look a little weak, like they are kind of dangling off the body.
