This model is actually almost 3 years old and was created using Max5.
Last week I recoverd my old models, found this one and gave it a new look! 2.5 years ago I showed the first version of my "cockroach" here, but I was never really satisfied with the rendering.
This time I wanted to go for realism and kind of a "product visualisation".
If I think back, I was very much influenced by artists like Dave Wilson, Arild Wiro and the new star wars movies at that time. :-) After watching Episode 1 (there´s a little bug-like robot with a bug-like shell) I immediately started modelling. Nevertheless Dave Wilson´s artworks have always been a great inspirational source.
Rendered using Max, Vray.

Thanks for your c&c in advance.
