Roger the robot

remus

That looks like a cool project, looking forward to watching him evolve and grow.

Howd you get the light form his eye/mouth? its a pretty cool effect.

russellbeta

Hey Remus.

Thanks for the reply

On the topic of lighting:

I lit up the eye/mouth and the parts on the jawhinge(which wil later also act as part of his neck) using SUpodium at first, after that I added the glow/rays to his mouth and eye with photoshop.

I had tried to get this effect using SUpodium alone, but it caused sharp lines of light on the walls around him which I thought where a bit too obtrusive. I have some ideas on how to improve the SUpodium effect as I would prefer a model that worked well even without photoshop sothat I could make better animations should i choose to do so(I'm also hoping to make him very easily posable.)

orgelf

yes , it looks nice .

I like the colours and the light .

the only thing to do now is to hang on and keep working .

ps: we don't see the tube when it is in the light of the mouth ...

russellbeta

thanks for the comment orgelf, yeah I will do a better job on the tube/light problem on my final renders. I love photoshop

Russellbeta Beta blaster,

I've been getting downloads from the grays for a good while now -- more to the point, I've been tapping their transmissions and I've seen this robot head before.

Clearly you have been doing the same, though I see you have cleverly tried to cover this point of fact by using the standard english alphabet.

I'm not Jack bird buying this.

Are you and agent for the meat puppets?

Look here at the name ROGER:

R -- Remote

O -- Operations

G -- Global

E -- Estrogen

R -- Retarder

Yeah:

Retarder (re·tard·er [ri-tahr-der]
–noun

a person or thing that retards.

Clever perhaps, but not quite so much so.

Your machine is a smart bomb designed to damp down the production of estrogen here on earth, and there for stop our species from procreating.

This of curse is another Jack bird attempt by the grays to take on the creative earth mind -- the "Amagnum brain."

I suggest you turn this around on the meat puppets.

Turn this devise into a dispenser of adult themed transmissions (aka: pornography).

As your receiving their feeds, you can simply reverse the frequencies of the standard transmission and -- BANG!! -- group think disrupted, and grays come tumbling down.

actually he'll probably turn out as a maid or something along those lines, good try though .

orgelf

so... how is Roger ?

russellbeta

roger is in a long queue waiting to get attention, afraid i've got a bucketload of work at the moment and dont have time for anything other than food/sleep :S
I'll probably get freed up a bit in about a month orso.

plot-paris

I am looking forward to it.

orgelf

yes me too
