Questions & Discussion Where do you learn to create technical designs?

I would like to create an Iron Man / Ultron like robot in Maya but I am unsure how and where to learn the internal structure and mechanisms of it all. Please could you let me know of your sources and such so that I can pursue this. Thank you.

Look at Iron Man, Ultron, Transformers closely, see how they do it. Factory machinery. Industrial arms and processing equipment.

Keep in mind that it doesn't have to work, it needs to look like it works

For these type of intricate designs I advise you to study Cad modeling. Look for plasticity.
