    Oh strange, I thought I had left a comment earlier. Anyways, I like the detail in the alternate mode, but I think that you need to balance it out in the robot mode because right now they look like you're juggling between two different styles. I'm not sure what would be good for the robot mode other than to segment it more, though that might be a challenge since you'll wind up with lots of sub-objects and will probably need to add more material types to help make it pop visually.

    By the way, is that supposed to be inspired by Beast Wars Megatron? The head seems to say so...... yes.....

    The first renders I post are like concept art. Now I add more details to both mode. I just began with the alt-mode. And yeah, I plan to do more plates and pieces to the bot mode.
    It's inspirated by Beast Wars Megation indeed. I think the purple fits very well with the black of the ship.

    An interesting blend of Beast Wars and the classic bucket head. I like the fact it evokes The Emperor's hood, even if it's unintentional.

    Maybe 3 or 4 days of work. After, I need to rig it to do some dynamic poses.
    I don't know if I do a lightsaber based on the Siege/G1 sword or a weird lightsaber energon mace :D

    Looking good so far, Cuillere. One thing to consider is that you may want to do some material / color breakup so not everything looks the same. I wouldn't go overboard, just consider using some silver, copper or gold to highlight or accentuate certain areas of interest. I look forward to seeing this rigged and posed!

    Thanks ! And yeah I think about it... I still don't know If I do a plastic toy feel render or a full metal reflection.
    I almost done the modeling. Keep in mind that the lighting is not final.

    Good job with Megatron! You've got some good details and it doesn't look overly busy. Really good silhoutte. Are you going to post this on Hodgson's Discord? I thought I saw some earlier WIP shots in there last month. Hope you get good feedback!

    Nice, I really like it. Just throwing this out but I have a crazy idea for the face. Make it light gray but with Darth Maul style tattoos in purple.
