Thanks! When I finished modelling it, I was kinda decided I wouldn't rig/animate it, so it got limited to this pose. But yesterday I decided I would give rigging a try, so in the next days I'm expecting to do some more renders with Styx in other poses!

TheSphinx In reply to screenscan [2012-01-15 14:09:32 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! It is composed of several separate elements, but it is not rigged yet, so it doesn't move. I'm in the process of rigging it though, which is giving me lots of work, because the concept wasn't quite made with movement in mind, so I have to tweak a few pieces in order for it to move properly. I don't think it is going to be able to move it's head though, only the legs and main body in general!... Let's see what I can come up with Thank you again ^^

The weathering on the orange plating is too uniform, ruins an otherwise great piece.

Well it's a show based around animal-based mecha, I guess the comparison was inevitable xD
