3D Animation Begins

I've finally started to actually animate my project and its looking good. I've never done 3D character animation but its not to hard, or at least not as hard as I thought. I had to cut down on the quality heeps because its gonna take like 6 weeks of rendering :S
So it looks a bit bland sadly

3D Modelling - 90% Complete

With only days left until all my 3D models are due for assessment I am almost done. Here is a  look at the battery my main character will be chasing after, and also here is a look a a crappy city backdrop which I might improve.

Big 3D Update

I've been working hard on my 3D project, especially since all my models are due in two weeks :S

I have finished a basic version of my robot, which I will upgrade if I have time, and also a hallway where some action takes place.

And here is an animation test for my robot. I just added a motion capture animation so a few of the limbs pop out and stuff but I wont have that problem when I animate it myself.

EDIT: Also for those who want to watch my stickpage tournament entries will have to wait a bit. The organiser of the competition is very sick and it will take some time for him to release the animations. I will definitely be announcing it here when they are finally released so keep checking back.

3D Modelling - Arms + Hands

Here is my first attempt at modelling my robot characters arms and hands. He has a gun and power pack on his left arm and a laser cutter on his right.

3D Modelling - Robot Body

I haven't had much time to work on anything lately but today I knuckled down and made the body for my robot character. It's not final but its pretty close. I will probably add more detail to the back.

3D Modelling - Robot Head

It has taken almost 20 tries but I have finally made a decent robot head for my animation. Please note that the body is just a premade model that comes with 3DS MAX and I will be making my own body.

The story is: A robot breaks into a secure science lab type place to steal a battery as he is almost out of power... in a nutshell.

3D Modelling - Gatling Turret

Hi all.
It's been a while since I last posted so heres an update on what I've been doing:

I have been getting stuck into modelling all the things I need for my 3D short film (storyboard available for download in previous post). This is a gatling turret that will feature in the animation.

I have only been using 3DS Max (program to be used for all the 3D work) for about a month now. I'm learning fast and hope to have all my modelling done by the end of this term.
