styrofoam model from it with a few artistic liberties. See some progress shots here:

They also gonna release a DVD on how the model was built.
Fun, eh?

And it looks like the prototype is finished! I checked the bottom of the page. Legs and all!

No, not finished so far. That's just the rough form I guess. Smoothing and detailling remains as well as coloring!

Prototype! The kind that could come out, but doesn't!

Yeah right, if you put it that way!
All I know is that they gonna make it all look nicely fleshed out and painted!

And they're gonna give you the first one? Free of charge?

No, it will be a single model only, no mass production.

hm...dunno, I am not working on the model, just did the concept art. I only know the photos.

Looks good. Love seeing things from drawings come to life. What's gonna be the purpose of the sculpt?
π: 0 β©: 1
I dunno, the sculpt will be build for fun and for the tutorial DVD I guess.

Excellent work. At first I thought this picture came from one of the "How to draw Robots" books. The robot looks cute when it being built.

hehe, in fact I did 2 tutorials for the 50 robots book!
See pages 48 and 50 and the index at the end of the book!

Wow! Really cool! Kinda reminds me of Ghost In The Shell's Tachikoma's. Well... Except this is alot cooler. Check out the Tachikoma's on Wiki and see the similiarities

*giggle* Great work again hideyoshi, great work.

I am a big fan of GITS of course! Have been for years...
thanks!

They look like mechanical fleas, which I think is a bit scary.

While your line work is pretty tight, I think it is taking away from the end product because of how intense the black is. In contrast to your other stuff, this looks slightly under-rendered. Don't get me wrong, I am a large admirer of your work, both here and on CA.org
π: 0 β©: 1
I surely understand! This was very loosely rendered only. I just wanted to keep the lineart on purpose, just as I do usually with industrial design...
π: 0 β©: 1
I understand. That's an approach that I see from time to time. I am an industrial design student myself, in Milwaukee. For conveying information, linework is a forbearer of sorts when it comes to showing it to other people.

Yeah, I learnt a lot from Feng Zhu. He used to do marker renderings way back and they were a huge inspiration to me. That's where I got most of my ID techniques from
I am actually not studying ID you know...
π: 0 β©: 1
I should have figured. ID and TD have crossed into so many other careers that you can see the principles of them popping up in work all the time, but not nessacarily in students of them.

This would have been great in the last CA IDW. Looks really solid and professional. Though I think the perspective on the front blue grille bit on the 3/4s view is a little skew. Really nice though.

thx for the crit, you are right about the slight offness on the grill!
Current IDW topic is so stupid, who wants to design a cocktail mixer?! :/

Heheh, yeah, but the last one was 'Walking Chair' and I can just imagine your bot with a deck chair and parasol on top

this looks like it could be a nano-bot... used in treatment of viruses and other bacteria based illnesses
