Description
ok first off, i know i promised id never post another matrix inspired pic, so um.... sorry.
anyway its an a.p.u. (one of those big stompy robot thingys from the last 2 matrix films.)
took around a day to model and another to texture.
its fully rigged and uses dynamics to solve all the jiggly bits like ammo belts, so i might just get round to animating it (if i can find time to model a character to operate it of course)
comments welcome...

Bravo! I say the more matrix pics the better. Excellent work!
Holy smoke Flak, thats amazing. Big VOTE.
Real bad guy. Hammer work. Fascinating machine and cool movement. Are You going to put this in a battle scene? Excellent.
Buckle up!..Reload! (hate to say it, but that voice goes through my head every time I hit the 'reload' button on my browser..;) great modeling.
Hey, nothing wrong with Matrix-inspired work if the results are as good as this. Excellent job.
Christ M8 this just blows me away..Very well done..
Wow, a really beautiful piece of ugly metal:) I always see much great texturing work here in Maya gallery, is Maya equipped with so good pre-made materials to start from? A big pleasure to look at.
you impress me and make me jelous every time i load up your images :)
Wow!! Awesome work. I really have to study texturing more!
I LOVE this model. It's an inspiration to me, and I really love the textures. An animation with this thing would be fantastic!
Is "jiggly bits" a technical term? Either way it looks great!
love it,,,i wnat to model a mech like this
Magnificently detailed composition! Bravo, well done! V
Cool model and texture!!
Nice work flak, always impressed.
Jesus crap fuc* - excellent job! I must say, you always have excellent work, but what makes it amazing is how FAST you turn it out - just astounding!
A day to model! Jesus, that's fast! Fantastic work, can't wait to see it in motion....
FECKINGWOW...nothing else to be said
you are definitely a master of the mechanical detail, man.
Good job mate. Both textures and model look awsome!
This is BRILLIANT Do more please you are exceptional. . . I just started mAyA and this is why ~BRAVO *VM
wow!! the details ..... great work!
absolutely breathtaking detail and great use of DOF in the lower image! your texturing work is stunning!
Wow! I'm begginning to see why it maya costs so damn much ($6,000 +) Awesome stuff.
Haven't checked out your gallery in a long time . You have come a long way ! Really nice work.
Very well made. The only comment I have (And it's not something you did) is that who ever first designed this ship (the modellers for the Matrix movies) must have been real stupid. Why make a ship that's a fierce fighting killing machine and not protect the person operating it. No protection. Not even a screen. Just one shot to the head and it over. Still you did an exellent job and good eye for detail.
Wow,man, your modeling skills are unbelievable - amazing work here!
hehehehe very cool, I would like to see that in a war zone! he looks like he is about to pop a cap in some tanks ass!
Very cool image.
Fantastic model :))))))
