Setting up the scene. I created a simple scene with a reflective floor. The floor was made up of simple boxes and copied over and over again with the copy tool to create a tiled surface. Since I used V-Ray for this scene, I needed the floor to catch the shadows, hence why I created a floor in detail instead of placing a texture that tiles unto a flat plane. For the light, I created two V-Ray lights and a standard light as a fill light. http://www.chaosgroup.com and http://vray.info/. I placed the model and everything else was good to go. The render only took about an hour or so, which was not too long but a big strain on my computer as it is. Robots alway have a high poly count, especially if it is this one, well known and famous from the film. So I had to add as much detail in as I could. Have fun!!!
