Pedro Toledo - Dominance War II

Argh! Robots... Cyborgs... I really don't dig it.

I REALLY wanted to do organic stuffs, damned!

But, I'm a soldier, and dutty calls, so I'm here reserving my spot in the front.

I'll probably try some insect based designs, trying to think what approach I'm going on with it, speed, power, accuracy...

See you soon with some concepts.

Now this is going to be interesting! I was also hoping that the theme would be more "organic",but oh well...
Looking forward to seeing what you'll come up with! Good luck!

I hear you man, i was hoping for more organic type stuff... but it is a challenege, and you'll get better at mech kinda stuff.

Take a look at "Ghost In A Shell" They are cyborgs (i think) and it still incorporates the human side.

Good luck buddy!

Thanks a lot for the support guys!

I'm struggling here with inorganic concepts, but I think I'm finally getting into a nice direction after a hundred sketches!

Tell me what you think, I would really like to get some feedback on this, I'm really a newbie at robots (not counting the cartoon one one my portfolio). So, any tip will be welcome

Velasquez, I've see you at The Pit Crew, havent I? Cool to see you here man, I must say I really liked you Dhalsim model.

And the concept. Initially inspired by the Mantis design I've adapted it after looking at some sci-fie movies pictures and other references over the net.

There will be green blood everywhere!!!!!!!

Hope you like it!

Hey man. Haven't been here in a while.
Your concept is looking really cool. I'd make his back a lot bigger and make it a container for tiny little droids that come out of it and feed on humans. Like a plague that needs to kill all form of life.

Eagerly awaiting updates.

I might enter also. I like inorganic stuff.

Kill the heretic, purge the unclean and let them wash my underwear!

looking real good. But, depending on poly count, you might want to play with the idea of having spikes or blades of some sort attached to the legs, or even popping out of the legs. You know, to do as much damage as possible the first time.

Hey there, nice start. If I had to be brutally honest, I would say that if you continue on this path, your character doesn't have the personality to win. Right now, there is nothing that gives him individualism. I can imagine him in a line up of thousands of similar robots.

Anyways, it's a good concept nonetheless. I know you are a good artist, so this is why I said what I did. i want to see you on the right track to victory because it will be even more glorifying when my character crushes you and everyone else here hehehe

Go CGChat!!

Dont listen to the last thing Fredh said, cut him down instead with your claws! :P I like ur concept to but more personality is needed, maybe some trophies of fallen enemies? Is that on the back a railgun? awesome!
