Description
These fellas came out of an idea for my website - a W.I.P. I originally just made the blue one, but made the other two to make it include the primary colours. This is my first attempt at character design, and my most advanced 3D work yet, and was done in a program which is marketed as a mere add-on to flash.

I refer to the excellent Swift3D v4 used here. This is its attempt at raster rendering, which I was extremely impressed at. For an £100 application, I am constantly amazed at how it manages things like this, which are almost at 3DS and Maya level, although, of course, they can do a lot more advanced things. Rendering time was approximately 7 hours or so at an original resolution of 6400x4800.

Very little Photoshop work, just the background gradient, and the fading out of the reflection - the reflection was already there in the render, but part of it got chopped off, so I decided to fade it out to make it look a *bit* more natural. I strongly advise a full view to see the interaction of reflections between the robots fully.
