It all looks good, but all of your robots rely too heavily on the same design influences, mix it up a bit and try to draw robots with a completely opposite influence, such as Manga or '5os era tintoys. It will help expand your range, and you are likely to have fun as well.

Sweet pencil, scuplting and building work, your robots take my eyes, they're so friendly killers, I love them.

The aliens look fuckin' badass, and the titan is purely beautiful, it looks a lot like the "official" stuff, it's very, very nice.

Unfortunately, at the time of drawing, I didn't have access to any really good programs (such as photoshop), so I did this in a trial version of macromedia flash that I was trying out at the time.

So long as I get credit for the image, and retain the Intellectual property of the character design, then sure, why not?

New pic!

I'm practicing human anatomy, at the moment, and this is the first sketch I came out with. I originally intended to put a caption on this and throw it into the 'propaganda collab - of victory' thread, but I kinda had some troubles with my home scanner. (Problem = the world's worst computer virus... Known as vista.)

I would appreciate any comments and crits on this picture to let me know where my anatomy slips up.
Thank you in advance.

This is an early WIP of something I'm knocking together....
Long story short, it's a battle.
Humanity versus my robots. (As per my novel.)

you definitely know how to shade, and your characters are really imaginative, good work.

Okay, time to update my art-bin...
At the moment, I'm spending most of my free time getting to grips with my animation software... So much of what I post up today will be CGI models.

Anyway, the first thing I want to show off is this model of a "Skirmisher Cy'An." You might recognise him from my battlescene drawing (above)...
The model is fully articulated, making it easier to animate.
(you can see a short test-animation of this model here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3UagtVbW FQ )

Anyway, my next piece to show off is one of my current works-in-progress...

If you go to page 2 of this topic, you will see a picture of Levitus, lord of the Cy'An....
Since I wanted to include him in my CGI animation, I've started work on building a model of him using the popular software "blender" (along with my original concept sketches).

Here is a picture of what I have so far, with my original drawing at the side for comparison.

And, of course, here is my battlescene picture as it currently stands.

I have been meaning to colour this picture in using my new software, but I've been kinda engrossed by my CGI toys for the time being. :D
Anyway, I thought I should post this here so that it's all in the one place.

you....you made a titan.....amazing, i'm guessing it's not full size, ot that cockpit would be big enough for a crew of three. I like your drawings as well as your alien sculptures, you are very good at using the green stuff. ahhhh i love my green stuff

On the contrary, my friend... the titan IS full-size. It stands eleven inches tall. (It can be built taller or shorter, depending on how you build the legs.)

There is actually enough room in the cockpit for a crew of three, but the two "front seats" for the Moderati are also slightly shorter than the Princeps throne. This means that they're not really visible in that cockpit pic...
When I can be bothered to do so, I'll sculpt a crew for my titan... Just so that people can see that there are moderati in there. :P

The titan is made from Styrene sheet (ebay), PVC tubing (the launching tube from a very large firework), the plastic tubes from fancy-shop carrier bags, lollipop sticks (the tube-type ones), the plastic sticks from cotton-buds (Q-tips, to Americans) and lots of green stuff.

The "prototype model" was made mostly out of cardboard, but I re-did a lot of that, because it didn't look so good when painted.

very, very nice. yeah now that I look at the cockpit again I can sort of make out the top of the other two seats. anyway, beats buying one, the most i'd pay for any model is 100 bucks, as I did for my baneblade.

Just thought I should keep my art-dump up to date....

Here's my finished CGI model of A'Le Levitus (The concept art can be seen in earlier posts in this thread), which is now ready to be animated. Since this model has a pretty high poly-count, it took me a while to attach all the vertices to the armatures, but I'm pretty happy with the way this one turned out.

Just adding a quick pic of my most recent sculpture... A 54mm scale cyberzombie, which the more astute among you might recognise from the first page of this topic...

That is seriously good! I don't know if that's pen and paper, but it sure is clean and neat!

the one hip looks a little bulgey from the back view, but it's still a pretty awesome little sculpture, some of the little details are sick

Well here i go, if you're interested in it you can check my homepage or deviant art page on my sig, my best so far(the background's supposed to be transparent, but png isn't supported so :P)

lol apparently i managed to have my first post in the wrong thread, really sorry about that, i must've mistaken threads back then was i drunk or what :P (and i notice it after 1.5-2 years, awesome!)

also, your drawings seem great, though a bit too "symmetrical" and "in shape" for my taste. Keep it up!

Fart may smell bad, but it makes other stuff smell better.
