Yes I did color some of the parts to get the closest thing to the actual robot.

Akash, I'll edit the bumper texture and post a new pic.

EDIT: Added new render. Don't really know if I got the fabric right.

Nice! Is that the finest you could go with the material? Play around with the blurr of the shadow as well, it will give it a more realistic look.

The camera orientation and lighting from your previous post looked much nicer than this one. The second and third from the last post.

The orientation on the X and Y axis keep getting offset so that's why I think the lighting is a little strange. I'll go back and set the axis' back to the way I want the and shoot another one.

I see lots of Solid Works users. Any Inventor users willing to give this render a shot? =)

Creo render with Perspective View.

Here's a rendering done via Autodesk's software. It was modified in Inventor and rendered in Showcase. Admittedly, Autodesk's "make it pretty" button is a bit clunkier/harder to use than SolidWorks' offering in PhotoView 360.

First Render Run of the day, Mind you this is one of my first renders using Solidworks so its not the best it could be. Ill update this post as I make more.

You might notice I have a different color scheme, figured I'd play with it a little with how I'd color a robot, however still very similar to the actual robot.

Took me a while to get to this, but here are my renderings.
All done in Autodesk Inventor 2013 with Inventor Studio.

Inventor's renderings aren't wonderful, but I'm happy with how they turned out.

I just spent about half an hour making the transmission. I tried video taping the whole thing.... It only captured 9 minutes of it...

I will try a video tape the rendering also, but for now i will just upload the transmission CADing Video. (well tomorrow i'll try to)
