Well, here's the torso and head for my latest project - a more "realistic", yet still quite Anime style, mecha/Robot. Rendered in P5 with a global lighting set up. Your opinions? If I do release it, it will have a FULL complement of smartpropped additional weaponry, including missile pods, shoulder cannons, arm-mounted weaponry, ECM gear, etc. So do you think this would do well here?

This one was rendered in P5 with a different lighting setup...

This one is the CR2 for the test version rendered in P4. Not that even though I rotated and tilted the neck, the pistons are still properly aligned... gotta love "Point At"...

Here's a render from Rhino of the torso, head, and newly completed legs. Hrms, looking at the proportions, I may make the "side torso" bits a little narrower... the shoulders would be waaay too wide...

Here it is with the arms. Just gotta detail 'em a bit more, and add the hands, then it'll be time to Poserize it. After that, well, there's the "Arm Weapon" pack, the "Shoulder Weapon" pack, the Flight Control system, the Command Armor, the ECM systems, etc...

I have absolutely no idea how well it would do in the marketplace, but I do know that I'M interested. This looks fantastic.

Well, all the basic modelling is done. Time to go map it and then rig it up... then texture it... then start work on the other stuff...
