I just finished some of the GMAX tutorials and have started on this:

Is anyone interested in the 4-leg animal mech designs? or should I stick with the 2-leg humanoid look?

This will probably take a long time to complete (months) with all the animation and texturing, etc; which at this point, I can't do.

Yeah, that definatly looks like the Voltron cats. I miss that show, I miss it alot.

As for texturing, if I were you, I'd work up a wire model and let the skinning community have at it. :)

Not bad work JackVanPimp for your first model. be sure to check out 3D studio max modeling tutorials as well as gmax ones just for ideas. Also check out www.3Dbuzz.com and www.planetquake.com/polycount.

For a first model it is extreamly good. but as it was mentioned before there a few to many polys in some areas. But i'm sure that you get better with time.


Well done :)
