    Don't know how you made those, but I'll just go ahead and say pretty damn impressive.
    Don't believe in yourself, believe in me, who believes in you.

    wow, that's something totally different from what I'm used to seeing. What do you make those things with? I just realized I have no idea what mech parts should look like, and even after seeing enough Gundams to make eyes bleed...

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    I use Goolgle Sketchup 6. It's very easy to use especially if you have a little background in draftsmanship.
    Extra progress:
    Arms and chest(front)
    Arms and chest(back)
    As requested, here's the wireframe shot of the model:

    i'm lovin the new wip. i like seeing these mechs in the early design stages, kinda reminds me of the time i spent putting together a gundam model kit. if i didn't know any better i'd say that mithril was a real co. and you were on the design team :P keep it up!

    ^better late than never...reminds me i've not had the time to touch my thread in a while as well, but anyhow it's good to see that you're still kicking ass and taking names with regards to the mech designs. everything is on point, from the shading to the lineart. everything's just crisp. fine job once again

    I picked up this rendering program for Sketchup, called Kerkythea. Played a little with it and got this result:

    Awesome stuff. You did this only using SketchUp?

    Yup. But the renders(those with a black background) are done in another program, Kerkythea 2008 and the animations are SketchUp + Flash combo.

    Nice. I didn't know you can do so much with SketchUp. I've just downloaded a program called Maxon Cinema 4D, so I hope to find time soon to give it a try. I don't have much experience with 3D modelling, but I'm hoping to learn.

    nice models, but the animations ( even though it has some nice complexity) definitly shows you aren't using a powerfull program, start using 3dsmax, its animation system is really easy to learn. Same to you Psyke, don't even start with 4d, get max instead .
