3D. Cinema 4D. Bandai. Gundam. Blokkhed. Robot. Toys. Model Kit.


Blokkbot as a Bandai model kit? What a great idea! It's great fun to work on concepts such as this, I really want to develop more designs for this robot, I just keep getting into other work and he keeps getting put on the back burner. But, I will do some designs for more armour and different configurations and vehicles, but there are unfortunately not nearly enough hours in a day.

Bandai. Gundam. Model Kit. Blokkhed. Robot. Cinema 4D


Here is the Blokkbot if he was a kit by the wonderful Bandai. I hadn't touched kits since i was about 16. But I recently bought a few Bandai Gundam kits. Beautifully designed and made they are. Wouldn't the Blokkbot look good as a kit? I think so, well I would wouldn't I?

Robot. Gort. Cinema 4D. 3D. Blokkhed


This is the 3D design for my Robot, I've shown the mesh and the final colours and lighting, he's only got three fingers and a thumb [well three was enough for Mickey]. He started as an experiment in using Cinema 4D, which I have found to be an excellent tool. Its intuitive and you can work quickly and get results. It was certainly a learning curve working in 3D. Working out joints and modeling and materials and lighting all are fascinating. It might look like it was inspired by Iron Man, actually he wasn't, if anything Gort from "The Day the Earth Stood Still" was a [sub-conscious] inspiration. This work got me into looking at Japanese Gundam, which I had never seen before [or really taken much notice of]. This was an eye opener to see just how much there is going on in that Mecha world. I've even bought a number of the kits, from Orbital Manga and Gundammad [something I hadn't touched for 30 yrs] which have been fun to work with. I'll be posting more of this "BlokkBot" as he is known in my house. I haven't worked on him for a while because of the more recent work, but there's actually a lot more to look at so it will be good to put it out here. July and August saw me producing completely new work [see previous] and its good to have all these styles on the go, even if some things get put to one side a little too often..

THE BLOKKHED IS COMING..


Slowly but surely the Blokkhed website is coming together. This particular designer has previously taken his time, but feels it is now time to get things rolling along. I have loads of influences and inspirations, more than the links show. I recently got into Gundam robots. I'm a late convert to this sort of thing. But I have always loved bots of some sort. From Robbie the Robot to Gort and Robot in Lost in Space, Robots of some sort have always been interesting. My own Robot-from now on the Blokkbot, came about as an adaption of earlier work-this is all going to be on the website so take a look when its live. The new head design looked like it should be a robot so I designed the rest of him. Theres a lot more work to be done so I'll keep at it.
I'm looking forward to more posting and linking you to the website. Anyway, take a look at Fornasetti, Orbital Manga [great for Gundam kits and all sorts of lovely stuff], check out Coolhunter-it really is !
Logging off for now, BLOKKHED.
