Cheers
Problem is, I'm not quite pleased with it yet...so I'm gonna make a few more renders and see what will come of it!

Thanks for the tip, I'll try to incorporate that into the next update!

Think he has enough weaponry?

Looking great so far, would look awesome in a demolished city scene with lots of dirty textures and damage.

Any recommendations? Should I use an HDRI or build a scene in SketchUp from scratch?

Which render engine you planning to use?

I think that a built scene would always be nicer, but a good integrated image based scene will also look good.

Currently I am using Bunkspeed Hypershot.

I'm not to familiar with it besides seeing a few renders on this site, I believe it's strength product rendering, how is the texture editor? and lighting controls?

Both are quite good (well...for the renders I want to make). Let's say I can use it with my (low) level of expertise. For me it's just a question of importing the model, editing the textures, maybe adding an HDRI and render!

How about remove the background of the image in photoshop, copy and paste it into a demolished city photo, then blur the background using filter-blur-gaussian blur. The end result usually looks good

A small update, the Mark III model:

Wow! Amazing model.
That's a bad-ass Mech.
