Artist Statement

With the loose general theme of robots and mechanical objects, I wanted to do something unique but still relevant by creating a tracked or tanklike robot. I was inspired by autonomous designs like the M5 Ripsaw and modelled the lower sections after a basic continuous track. I chose a sandy environment and tan metallic coloration for the model as I was inspired in part by the US deployments in the Middle East and the use of the M1 Abrams tank. Instead of putting a conventional turret on top, though, I chose to create a partial robot torso, head, and arms though I did not have quite enough time to finish all of the weapons that I wanted.
