Adamant II Still Working!

Adamant II Still Work in Progress

Still working on Adamant II.  Getting a lot more fleshed out, now, and I'm generally happy with the direction it's going in.

Trying a new technique for this ship: low poly interiors for the windows.  It doesn't really pop as much as I'd like it to, but it's not so bad that I'll take it out, either.  Still some work to go on it.

Adamant II Update

Still to do:

--Add hull plates to rest of ship.
--Add more windows.
--Add greebles and doodads.
--Flesh out wings.
--Add turrets and launchers.
--Finish interior landing bays.

Adamant II

New Adamant body style, following the Maller body style for original concept.  Going to add my own spin on it.  This is how I typically come up with spaceship designs. =)

Adamant Detailing Session

Super detailing stuff involves more than adding doodads to an object.  Greebles should have some kind of logical sense behind them, like they belong on the spaceship or scene.  Wires should go places, there should be rivets or bolts or plates of some kind.  Anything that makes sense.  If you have trouble figuring out what to add, look at reference images of various industrial machinery (i.e. rail road equipment from the 1920 - 70's, industrial yard trucks, heavy mining machines, etc...). But remember to add a sci-fi twist to it.

This will give you a good starting point, and, depending on the look you're trying to get, can give you stuff you don't actually have to modify very much.

Try it for yourself and you might be surprised by the results! =)

Still working on Adamant, hoping to get her space-worthy in a few weeks.

Have a great weekend, everyone!

Retro Spaceship (Finished)

A spaceship I made a year ago and posted on store fronts.  I really like it, though it turned out to be less popular than I hoped it would. Oh well. =)

Dan

Nearly Finished!

Still need to add some posters, but besides that, almost done!

And so that all that will be left is conversion and uploading onto the store-fronts!

Then to Deck 1!

Walk-through Animation

A walk-through of my interior set of the gunship model.  Deck two.  A week's worth of rendering on an i7 processor!

Dan

A few days worth of work behind me.  Starting materials and textures.

More Interiors! (WIP)
