Scientists aren't known for their product design skills and this is prevalent in the Droid design. Form didn't have to follow function, all that was needed was function. I've been trying to solidify what I think Droid Mk 1s look like for some time but in essence they are a very boring looking humanoid robot. That's it. The more flashy I tried to make them, the less like a simple killing machine they looked.
So I decided not to try and render the Mk 1 (my attempts at modeling them are pitiful) and instead I did an arty thing to give an impression of a robot rather than a strict picture. An impression along with descriptive test should be enough!
The best thing of all is that I can just get on with doing other Icar stuff now because this had become something of a block for me. Next to finish the texture mapping for the Cruiser.
