~ RX913 Towing Droid ~
The police comissioned RX913 Towing Droid is a multi-purpose unit which functions as a traffic officer, towing vehicle and parking ticket printer. The RX913 works round the clock to keep illegally parked vehicles off the streets. Being an early prototype, the droid has been known to make mistakes from time to time ~ here we see the droid has apprehended a small-remote controlled vehicle which he is now bringing to justice.

Digitalfly: I wish you'd have included a side view of your motocentaur, i'd like to know more about how the body's atached to the bike. Other than that, real cool and convincing design, and that's why i'm voting for you.

[Simon Boxer]

digitalfly got my vote -> great render and design.

sillikono had a good idea, but it seems more like a generic unit or piece of war machinery than an individual character.

[noiion]

Silikone's got mine. It looks like it's in the most pain. Great entries everyone.

[Pheep]

Digitalfly got mine, wish there was a description to match the rendering...

No harm in not accepting mine, this is all for learning anyway. Great stuff here and will keep trying.

[Dragonlady]

Digital fly got it., Just too interesting of a render for it to not get my vote. Plus its a trike. I gotta thing for trikes :)

I was also intrigued by Davi's and was diggin Rawwds treds. Great work from everybody.

[MattWhite]

Digital fly's centaur reminded me most of the traditional half man half horse centaur.

[trev]

When I think of centaur I think of something from a medievil time time period - this is why I like sillikone's because it retains that feel, but mixes it up with some futuristic technology. It also looks like some kind of big horrific beetle - very threatening :)

Good work all round, hopefully Ill have enough free time to enter this weeks chow!

[Interceptor]

Digital Fly's I can just see coming to life and tearing it up. Got my vote :)

[Kian]

Digital Fly's just had that edge. The expression of every component worked in a unified way. Sillikone came second for me.

[redehlert]

digital fly - that did it for me!
but in all honesty and fairness, these were all superb renders and concepts!
cheers!

[MattGamer]

i'm stunned and freakin love this... maybe i might join in on the fun next round. ;)

[Wholewheat_keyboard]

I ended up voting for digitalFly but it was close - I think his piece had alot of expression and was rendered nicely in b/w, also liked the composition alot. Although I think all of these are very good, except mine which really dissapointed me.

silliKone almost got my vote, like this one alot too ~ nice sense of atmosphere and weight to it. Reminded me a little of Frank Franzetta's death dealer painting, which is pretty cool.

rawwad very cool, like the design and rendering of his treads, also has a strong mood to it. Only criticism i have, i think that his arm holding the sword could use a little more shading or something to recede it further into the image, at first glance it reads like it is on the same plane as his torso - still kickass and made it difficult to pick a winner.

davi I like your concept alot, thought this was the most original take on the bike ~ great job!

shamagim fun painting with lots of energy ~ like the colors alot. Anatomy and foreshortening might need minor tweaking ~ not pointing a finger tho cuz my anatomy and perspective have problems. :muscle:

[digitalfly]

Oblio Sorry for no descryption. I just forgot it.
My vote got a Shamagim - good render and strongly pronounced human part of creature.
Wholewheat_keyboard, redehlert, kian3001, Interceptor, MattWhite,
Dragonlady, Pheep, cognition.sb, walnut - thank you all for good words.
Davi, rawwad, sillikono - iI like yours work

Wholewheat_keyboard, you don't need disapointed for your work. It's have a good render and color. Only what do you need - it's a composition decision. Try to analyse picts that you very like. Why you like it. I belive that becose the picture have a big inside dramatic and perfect composition. There is a not just a figure there is a comfoteble set of dark and light spots.
(sorry for off top)

[ACRO]

all did really good job here...

i like digitalfly for making his shit look offfisshhhy
with his style/detail and shading

[chaosrocks]

Rawwad...
all these entries were great. this one was a really good render
creepy
chaos

[asoir]

Davi simply because his had a description and high quality art as usual...people are getting lazy!

[GratefulDread]

had to go with Sillikone on this one I love the concept, and the render. sorry I didnt have time to work on this one.

[Hideyoshi]

Shamagim's was pretty nice but it was definitely
digitalfly in the end!
Lovely composition, point of view, design and rendering!
Nice stuff by: davi, rawwad and sillikone

[theshunzun]

Digital fly got my vote for it's unsurpassed creative, technical, and sexifying prowess.

dag, i feel like dancing! Thanks, buggie!

[theshunzun]

plus i'm kinda tired of all the monstrous, demonic, hell-bent interpretations of ideas that seem to inevitably float around in this sight.

sorry guys. that's how i feel.
