Concept Artist: Bjorn Hurri, ........Modeller: StefanoTsai
 
 
Software: Photoshop, 3d Max 2010
 
The original concept comes from my good friend and mate,
his name is Bjorn Hurri.
He is a really talented conceptual artist,
I am lucky to have the honour to work with him at SEGA/The Creative Assembly.
He made this robot for fun during his lunch,
http://cghub.com/images/view/6103/ ( Click the link to see his original webpage of this robot.)
I like it alot and have been thinking to model this for a long time.
Finally, this was kicked off few weeks before. I started to use my lunch time to model his master piece.
 
He has a website, I put a link below and you have to check out his cg works, a lot of cool stuff
The thing is, the cg work he shows there is only a little corner of his sketchbooks.
He is like a crazy concept making machine( I meant he is a man, however, is crazy like a machine)

Anyway, I have to get back to the topic for this page,
I started this steam suit from its main body, modelled its skin and underlying structure,
so that I can add most of the main pieces seamlessly later.

Step 1 / 100
The original concept art below was made by Bjorn Hurri, he made this image with extra details to help me how does this machine work in his mind. He took out its upper arm, so I can see those joints and mechanical details.
