that will be soemthing useful and the syrogennthing is made for pipes not the legs of a mechanical robot

you can't ask for something as specific abstractly like "the legs of a mechanical robot"

experiment yourself. Tutorials won't do everything for you.

actually, as Incarnate points out, the tut is showing you a technique, so you need to learn and then apply the technique to your liking.

You asked about a metal texture thats not as clean as brushed and thats what we have showed you.

If your asking how to make a robots legs, then thats really all down to you as the designer to 'design' them, and then apply a metallic texture.
