My homage to one of my favorite sci-fi characters - the android Mr. Crane from Neal Asher's "Polity" books.
DAZ's Michael 3 head, sub-divided and broadly sculpted in Modo. Duplicated in Bryce and made 1 BU larger and moved 1 BU forward. The outside head was given a shadowless glass texture and the inside has a simple brass texture.
The rest was modeled in AC3D and Modo.
Mostly Bryce textures based on a Hue value of 25 except the custom techno eye texture and "faux" HDRI created in PS CS2.
Rendered at 32RPP with a IBL Q value of 512 on a MacPro Quad.
Render time around 20 hours.
