Okay, so here is my first attempt at anything somewhat technical and dang is it hard to do. I am not overly crazy about it but it is coming along. I have no idea where it is going or even what it is at this point so just because you see this now does not mean it will look anything like this when I am done

Good Start Tahnoak, I can see this textured, will look beautiful!
Is good when we don't know what we are doing, we do thing naturally so we can express ourselves better.

I have a secret passion for robotic leg squeezers...

Well whatever it is I like. I can see this in a rodeo or out
in the garden as a robotic combost bin.
Great that you joined us, even if I do abuse the entries...

leonregis..thanks! I am trying a new approach with this one and that is to NOT texture it until I am done modeling. I may even try a little UVMapper as well.

Steinie...hahahah, i had not thought of that. maybe that is what they will end up being. But for now, I think you will be able to see where this is going.

Updated screenie. Working on textures and lighting. Not going with a full scene on this one. Just focusing on the robot and the service it provides

This robot need a gun for those who don't want to pay.

Marcel, it is hard to see but there is a tiny mechanism built into the arm that if someone doesn't pay then the robot immediately flips the bottle over in its holder and whips it at the customer with deadly accuracy

Final Submissions. I think this closed on the 20th and I just ran out of time to work on this any more. Darn family!!!

Thanks Breech. I have been on a lighting frenzy lately. Not sure why but I have been modeling little things and then spending hours just tweaking with lighting in both tS and Vue. It really is amazing what good lighting will do for a scene. As I have heard before, good lighting can make up for bad modeling but good modeling can't make up for bad lighting

I think it is too dark. Cool model and idea though.

Dude! You achieve something that I get hard time to. This scene is too realistic, using Lightworks, right? Really beautiful, the only things that make you see that it is 3D is the black background. How you did the glass?

Keep the good work!

Finis...yeah, it is pretty dark but that was the ambience I was going for. Sort of like a very high tech home bar that one might find in the basement of some mad scientist

leonregis...thanks! Yes this is all lightworks and I purposely left the background color black so that the other colors would stand out more, as you noticed.

The glass is the following settings:
Color: RGB (189,228,226)
Transparency: 0.24
Bump: None
Reflectance: Glass
- Shininess: 1
- Specular: .08
- Reflection: .75
- Transmission: 1
- Refraction: 2.54
