Idea

I’m a big fan of old sci-fi movies and books. I spent a lot of time reading books of Isaak Asimov, Ray Bradbury, Robert Sheckley, Kurt Vonnegut, Strugatsky Brothers and watching movies like Terminator, Blade Runner, etc. I looked for a good idea to practice hard surface modeling combined with advanced texturing techniques. I thought It would be great to make old-fashioned sci-fi robot.

Style

I decided to develop my own concept for this idea, which I based on an old-school heavy design from VHS movies from 80’s and 90’s like Terminator and Judge Dredd. I mixed it with a chopped polygonal style I love very much in franchises like Deus Ex and Dishonored.

As any old-fashioned mechanism, this robot should look like a mess of raw metal parts, cylinders, hoses, and wires, covered in rust, of course. It’s a brutal way I like.

This iron bastard represents war, he is a bad guy. So, let me ask you: what do you know about war? Which associations you have? Feelings? Death? Fear? What else?
