I think he had to know about engeneering to model this one.

Or, he could just be a good anime-style artist who first drew a series of sketches then compiled them together and completed the model.  My only problem against the engineer part is the knees.  
Inverse knees are cool, but there is very little structural support in this model's instance.

The model is awesome, but I don't like the design much actually.

The render looks great. The (hydraulic?) pistons look way too small to properly move the legs around though; I think the model just has lots of detail rather than a lot of good engineering.;)

My thoughts as well.

Pffff. Easy. It'd take friggin ages to model and render but there's nothing particularly hard about it. The only difficulties arise when you want to make the damn thing move. The amount of skeletal and Character Studio work needed would be unbeleivable. Also, the toes are very simple.

Ohh my gawd,.  what have I started here...?

But anyone crazy enough to do it,  well... should!
 it will be another fether on your cap.

It's probably only take a weeks hard work but I have...err....other projects to deal with. I'm guessing about two months of half-assed laziness will be required.

Don't you :rolleyes::doubt: me young man.

The hardest part is going to by saying good by to my processor and graphics cards when I try to piece all the parts together and render it. They have served me (reasonably) well for many years, they will be dearly missed.

Oh, and:

I'm taking this to mean a similar model, not a copy.

Could do, but after a while, selecting face and appling modifiers gets extremely difficult.
