Here is the head of the robot i am thinking of doing for a video tutorail which i will hopefully be allowed to upload on here, simple proceduals added for now.
In the tutorial i will cover full charcter modelling, texturing, rendering and lighting and maybe some animation in a different tutorail
Let me know what you think of the head

You're not going to be allowed to upload it here.

I don't remember the name of the thread but, if you did a little searching on the forums you'd find the topic where this was discussed.

yep thanks for that i just found it oh well only wanted to help the community

sspikedudley · 15-07-2004, 03:24 PM

morghen · 15-07-2004, 07:35 PM

hmm....riging this should be interesting

masayio · 16-07-2004, 02:35 AM

that would be awesome!!! i love the detail in the head. would this tutorials be free if you were to make it XD?

In responce to users posting tutorials on the site, why not just have the moderators and admins vote on whether or not it is worthy, just like gallery submissions. That way more knowledge is shared and it would still be high quality if it passed the voting. Just an idea I thought would work well. Great robot by the way

Because this is a commercial site, posting member's video tutorials here would be counterproductive. It is kinda like asking Kevin and Co. to host a file that will never earn SimplyLightwave a profit.

Infact freebie tutorials created by members would probably distract from the VIP section altogether and cut into SimplyLightwave's profits.

Think of this site however you please but at the end of the day realize that it's still just a business.

Don't let this discourage you. Just know that this is the wrong place to post your own personal video tutorials.

As i can't get the tutorials on here the tutorials will be free and can you explain what XD is.

Infact freebie tutorials created by members would probably distract from the VIP section altogether and cut into SimplyLightwave's profits.

If i could have got it up here, i was going to allow them to make it a VIP tutorial so they would profit from it

sspikedudley · 16-07-2004, 11:00 AM

here is an update on the body and the arms

sspikedudley · 16-07-2004, 11:01 AM

and better lighting and texturing on the head

sspikedudley · 16-07-2004, 01:19 PM

hand update this is the grabbing claw (for picking things up etc.) while the other will be more hand like for practical things like holding small items and technical working
Also added a little light for night time illumination (like a torch) let me know what you think
Still some work to do on the claw like knuckle parts so the claw can bend

sspikedudley · 17-07-2004, 09:29 PM

update legs and joints added to the claw let me know what you think
Thanks
Rob

sspikedudley · 18-07-2004, 03:57 PM

Feet added
Just a hand and a few final touches on it and the model will be complete

The robot looks too organic... Needs more details and moving parts... Unless you want to use this for serious animation like a dance or something... Hehe But the texturing is very nice.
