Insect Droid MKIV
Here the model (componets made in wings3D) was rendered in a matt red material and lit with a light dome (obtained from Beanzvision's now evapourated website) took about 140 plus hours of processor time - so about a week then. I then layered another render of the same scene, with reflective surfaces over this one in PSP7 to provide a little bit of white highlight via luminance. On the whole, the combination of DOF and light dome = annoyingly long render for indifferent lighting results. Still you never know unless you try...

wooow! I love your models! Is wings 3d more like 3dsmax? is it difficult? i have thought about starting to make my models outside bryce because then i have more space to work on, more tools and so on. I love the render and setting of the droid. I almost feel its "alive"
Thanks! More legs Horo? The springs are springs they were made in Wings3D with the spring making option - I just put a few extra curls in there to extend them a bit.
You know what crossed my mind? If it had (ahm - haha) 8 legs, it could go as a robolobbster or robocrab. It does look like a crab, not only the colour, the form as well. But don't add the legs. This is a very interesting design. Are those spirals or only rings. They do look like spirals to me, particularly so the one at left. Very nice shoulders! Light and floor are superb. I think a 5/5 is due.
Wow! It looks so real :) I would really like to get my hands on this one :D
It's got Independant Suspension. KEWL! LOL The work you do is so amazing! :-)
