Robots.

[Quek]

In this thread we'll present robots we drew. but there are rules:
1. Don't present silly things like stickmen.
2. Make your works look good, not something like "1 minute work in MS paint."
3. You can present every kind of robots- Battle mech's, work robots, house robots and many others.

Here are my works. Made with colour pens.
Info for Valve- you can use them in Half-Life 3.

Hooray for robots! Robots rule! Ahem. Nobody replied to this thread yet? Well, here's two robots I did about a year ago...

Quentin the Robot
Winston the Smashinator

house robots

You mean like houseboats? Kind of like mobile homes on legs. What an intriguing idea... /me ponders the possibilties.

 

[Druckles]

A bit extreme right?

 

[Edcrab]

I thought by house robots he meant servile domestic machines But walking houses are good...

I love robots! If someone draws a robot they can do no wrong

I've got a heap of concepts someplace, I'll scan them in when I get the chance.

 

[Edcrab]

Can I just say, for the record, that the edit time for posts in Art and Design or Fan Fiction should be greatly increased?

Anyway, I found an old pic of Lennie I made. It's actually an old experiment I made with lighting and shading techniques (and thus he looks insanely crowded, what with the extreme dark and the extreme light halves) but it's the only robot image I have stored on this machine...

triple edit: It done be found!

[Druckles]

That 3d one looks like domo-kun, more realistic than roboty

 

[Brian Damage]

Two older robots, Morris, the robot from EoJ, and two mechs from EoJ.

 

[crabonhead]

wow! that last one is really cool!
plus its coloured. Ive never had the gaul to colour anything properly.

good stuff.

 

[Druckles]

Very nice work, I prefer the coloured ones

 

[Sorze]

Nice pics all around...

I remember Morris!!

 

[Quek]

robo4-civil protection
robo5-flamethrower

 

[CrazyHarij]

Great stuff guys, I love robots!

I have to draw some myself..

 

[CREMATOR666]

Nice drawings :thumbs:

 

[Edcrab]

More of the same, 'cept this time he doesn't look like he's been the latest victim of a spray-gun wielding Triffid.

I like Brian's scuttler and crab's sword-holding guard droid thingy

 

[CrazyHarij]

Some kind of lifting/carrying robot.. Let's call him Douglas

 

[Edcrab]

Legs are a bit off- but I'll presume that's deliberate, 'cos it gives him heaps of character! Something always annoys me slightly when robots are portrayed as perfectly formed examples of equisitely realised technology- I'd say that if they ever become common sights the vast majority will be purely functional and not especially pleasing to the eye.

Talking of eyes... eerie glowing = win

Yeah, I mean he's by no means well drawn or anything, but I like to draw robots abit "miserable" with 'off' positions and perhaps being abandoned.. There's something about an abandoned, old rusty sad robot.

 

[Druckles]

Yeah, reminds me of that film... the really long one... AI
But I don't think we'll actually get to the level of artificial skin anytime soon. (I mean artificial nerves. Like Data in First Contact if you get what I mean)

Hmm... Wonder why I didn't post in this thread yet.

Here is one I made for an unofficial art competition some time ago.

http://img164.exs.cx/img164/1138/Gman_SideKick.jpg

And here is one I STARTED (hardly work on it anymore...) All in MS Paint (Yeah it's my favorite program) and all with the mouse. Mostly the line tool, and ellipse tool. I also didn't do any kind of skeleton. All done with just eyeballing it. Really proud of it even though it is unfinished

[Mechagodzilla]

I drew this guy a long-ish time ago.

 

[Edcrab]

That thing's awesome Mech. But then again I've always been a sucker for semi-humanoid killing machines

Although possibly he's just a misunderstood catering 'bot with homicidal tendencies, right?

Veg- you drew that second one in Paint? Woo. Must've taken ages... I usually make low quality things myself and try to disguise the fact with colour fills

 

[Sulkdodds]

Dude! Sumo robot wrestling!

 

[Vegeta897]

Someone gave a link to this amazing site.. It showed drawings of these AWESOME and GODLY robots & machines. Wish I could find it again...

 

[CrazyHarij]

Another robot. Is he a harmless engineering and repairing bot, or is he a merciless destroyer of worlds? You decide.

I'd appreciate any kind of critique, I really really need it.

 

[Edcrab]

Ah, now that I like! Note that although I'm a cyber-freak I don't heap praise on everything mechanical, so take any comments at face value- when I say it's good I mean it's good!

The shading is brilliant, especially the subtle play of the light produced from what I'm taking to be an eye- although I will say the yellow portions are perhaps a bit too brightly shaded. Garish, perhaps, but that's probably the effect you wanted...
