Fallout Terminal Console [Prop challenge]

Polycruncher

Hey polycount ,
I decided to join the community prop challenge hosted by Dinusty. The task was to recreate a prop console which was made for the last fallout game. Concept was provided by Ilya Nazarov. I tried to stick to the concept as close as possible. This is my last progress so far. The Model was created in Modo. For texturing I will use  substance painter. I am already done with the Lowpoly. I decided to go for a little higher polycount, because it will be not used in any engine. DiNusty  told  us we can post our progress here as well. Also I can promote his challenge a bit. Feel free to join him on DIscord.   Hope you guys like it.

The high poly is looking really nice and accurate! It does seem the little mohawk/ antenna piece has more of a downward curve from the side to compliment the monitor shape. Looking forward to seeing this progress.

Nice! I made a fallout terminal a few months ago and had a blast doing it. Looking great so far.

Hey thanks guys. Today I worked on the Uvs. This is my final uv layout. My last attempt I didnt pack manually at all. I did, but  modo crashed after my pack work was almost done, I was mad and skipped that part. I am not a good packer to be honest, but i think it will still does the job at least.

Hey guys,

I baked the normal map today and I am pretty happy with the result. First try had some small issues in the projection, but i could fix all errors pretty fast and easy. Here is what I came up with.

compared the first bake against the second one, I am happy that I made the decision to move back and  start over gain.

Hey guys,

I decided to try out substance painter the first time and i had really a good time with it. I was pretty impressed, how fast and easy you can archive such things. I think I am nearly done with the texturing. So It will be very cool if you have some ideas. I am open for everything. I will do a floor next for presenting the model and then I will work on the presentation. Here is my new progress ( the image is a little bit washed out because of my screenshot tool. I will do some highres screenshots later. )

Looks great! I don't think I can provide any critique here. I love the dust on the screen.

Hey guys,

Here is a small update of my challenge entry. There are not a lot of changes. I brought the prop into marm set and made  a test scene to see how everything looks. I am also currently working on some small scenery.

To bring up the dust on the screen again, is it just off white colour and increased roughness?

Polycruncher

These are 4 layers in total and stacked on to each other . The bottom one got the strongest values and its get more subtle to the top. All masks are handpainted as well and the bottom one got some very subtle normal value to give the impression of thick dust. Hope this helps. I can show you my layer stack as well, if you want?

Here is my layer stack:

Ashervisalis

Nice, appreciate it! I wouldn't have thought of using multiple layers for dust. Did you just use a soft noise for the normal?

Here is my final submission for the current challenge of Dinustys community. I wish I could do a better presentation, but because of personal reasons I couldnt push it more like this. I had still a super fun time while making it. Hope you guys like it.
