Description Wir Sind Die Roboter
I've been working on this for the last month, taking up a lot of time, sketch paper and oceans of coffee.
I was looking forward to stepping up my rigid-surface expertise out of my comfort zone, I'm quite happy with the result.

I chose a rule of thirds composition with a bit of golden ration thrown in for good measure. The color scheme is complimentary, with the cyan/green glowy bits contrasting against the warm red/orange lighting setup. The materials are all made with tiled box-mapped textures to streamline the excessive number of components, that, together with importing images as alpha-masked planes, is a life-saving trick.

Yes, that is a Kraftwerk reference.

Nice! The colours are really good, and the story is also cool.

I just think the face could be a bit more "humane", maybe with eyes or some kind of mouth. I guess then I would feel sorry for the poor guy

It looks awesome and realistic I just can't make out which side of the robot I'm looking at

Thank you! But i must say that i do not understand your second statement, do you mean that the composition is polluted? Or that its orientation is poorly hinted?

Ah yes, i see. I may have indeed made its frontal face rather confusing despite the battery heart symbolism. Many thanks for the constructive criticism nonetheless!
