Down But Not Out

I began the pace of ideation, gathering references to help me build up the story, this would determine the kind of material and texture I'd make for the bot.

Since I don't have the high poly mesh for baking, I subdivided the low poly and used the same for baking, while examining the mesh, I found invalid faces and  some unused vertices, after having resolved those, I proceeded further to baking.

I choose colors on the variation of yellow because it stands out more than other colors, making it a good choice for a robot’s body or exterior.
