Genres of Robots

Cyber punk

This genre of robotics is one which focuses on strong dystopia ideals. The loss of morality, humanity and freedom in succumbing to that of technology. Examples of media in this genre include Blade Runner and Dark city.

Steampunk

A genre of robotic which is most commonly set in anachronistic Victorian settings. It experiments with technology happening sooner than it should have. It generally correlates to science fiction and fantasy themes. Steampunk is more about technology helping us than hindering us.

Sci Fi

Robots of the sci fi genre usually breach into space territory. Often white and chrome plated, they are rather alien and obscure. These robots often have the most distinguished shapes and sizes, differing greatly.

Of all he genres, Sci fi fantasy is what i will be aiming for. I know my weaknesses when it comes to drawing and modelling - and that is hard surface, mechanical designs. I'm more of an organic person, stubborn geometry doesn't suit me well.
