LEGO - Tripod Robot - 2025

“To survive, we must stop playing! Stop playing?” Tom Holland.

Who says you’re too old to play? People who’ve forgotten how to do it, that’s who… The truth is, no one should ever grow out of play. Play brings wonder, creativity and joy to a world that needs it. And we’re not the only ones who say so. Isn’t that right, Tom Holland?

I modelled this 10 meters high tripod-robot from the concept-arts created by the amazing Calum Alexander Watt. Advancing in a seemingly unstopable army, that asset was never really meant to be seen close-up in the LEGO advert. It is only after delivery that I had a play at refining it to make it feel like a tangible piece of machinery filled with intricate details. Modelled in Maya, textured in Substance, and rigged, animaed and rendered in Houdini.
