MEAN MACHINE ANGEL (2006) 3500 tri's Maya. Photoshop 3X 512 Texture maps (Arm, Head, Body) Based on the character Mean Machine Angel from the Judge Dredd comics. He only has one arm, the other is a stump. It was difficult to get a clear concept picture of him, as over the years several different artists have drawn him, each with their own varied style. In the end I drew my own version which was an amalgamation of different styles. The robotic arm is slightly upgraded from his 'traditional look'. It Is larger than some of the comic pictures, has a couple of gun barrels added to make him more interesting and I added a thumb - how else would pick things up? Its the first attempt at a game character, and it was quite a learning process. I remodelled the face several times, finally settling on a comic book style, and had several attempts at UV mapping before I was happy with it. The UV maps still are n't quite right with some distortion in places, but at least I know why now. The best bit was painting the body texture to look stretched and sore on his chest. He is rigged with an IK/FK arm, IK legs (with foot rolls) and IK spline in his back with three control objects.
