The robot in the picture probably it's not famous (except in Japan, Italy and a few other country that broadcasted this Cartoon in the 80's). Technically speaking this is a simple render but I used  one of the wonderfull skies of Eki Halkka as background (Thank you Master!).   Hehe, you make me blush ;-) - Eki I turned on radiosity and I used vector blur to smooth the head near the camera! It's not realistic but I like it the same! I you like my work visit my site, it's full of japanese robots modeled in Lightwave http://jeegpage.go.to     Contact: Gianni Soldati giannis@openaccess.it
