Description
Hey guys,So recently I've been working on an eat3d tutorial teaching people how to get hard surface results similar to that of a traditional 3d package. It was just released so I figured I'd upload it.
You can find the tutorial here:
[link]
The tutorial covers a bit of the concepting, reworking, sculpting the final model, rendering with Vray, and compositing in Photoshop.
As for the design, I was very inspired by the Marine and the Firebat from Starcraft 2. I enjoyed that game a lot and loved the designs so i wanted to achieve something similar. Also I was trying to focus on maneuverability of the character it self. I wanted to create a mech that would have as little self collision as possible.
The programs I used for this were:
Zbrush - For the model and sculpting
3ds max with Vray - For rendering passes
Photoshop - For compositing
Also the DVD covers a bit of compositing to show you the basics of how to achieve a final image like this.
Anyways, please enjoy and I hope you like it!
Edit: Daily Deviation!!! Oh my god thank you so much to ^artofkerem for featuring it!!! Thanks to all those who favorited and commented on it. It means so much to me

It's glorious! Now we just need a real life one...
Gotta be said, the shaders are brill too, it just adds that extra bit. I would ask how you go about making them, but I'm guessing thats included in the tut - wouldn't want to be taking anything for free, now
Congrats on DD, as well

Haha thanks man! Many of the shaders are VERY basic. All of the dust, scratches, diry, decals, everything else is done in photoshop. The main red shader (for example) is simply a very basic car paint shader in vray, which is very easy to create. Just high gloss high specular.
As for the real one, If you have 9,000,000 dollars I will get started right away! 
Thanks so much I'm excited about the DD XD ♥♥

Pretty rad, I can definitely see the inspiration behind this render. It also made me think of the Blood Eagle tribe from Starsiege: Tribes; a juggernaught or heavy class. At least, that's how I'd like one to look.
