abandoned train station [UDK]

Alex04se

Hello everyone.
Do work on the sketch Artem Vlaskin.

fearian

Phenomenal start!

Can we see wires or a texture breakdown?

ZacD

Nice blockout, I'd taking a similar approach to working on my current project, it really looks in the same style as the concept. Can't wait to see this finished.

reverendK

this is lookin like it's gonna be real cool. i'll be followin.

breakneck

can't wait to see this come together!

c22dunbar

VERY nice!

put more sections on that door arc.

Darkmaster

This is awesome!! And what a beautiful concept You are off to a great start here!! Your textures are already looking sweet. Can't wait to see some breakdowns.

WarrenM

Fuuuuuuu...

Pookhan

wow this is really awesome. Cant wait to see how this one goes.

Oniram

EXCELLENT! this is one of my favorite environment concepts. looks like youve got a great start on it. i really cant wait to see this progress.

David-J

It's looking awesome!

chrisradsby

Great work on the detail of that building, that is beautiful!

ivanzu

Looking great! I'm not sure if im right but i think that you made the leafs on the ivy a bit too large.

HandSandwich

Really nice stuff. The thing that stands out to me is the roof. In the concept it looks to be blue tiles whereas your roof is more like corrugated metal. Still, you've got a really great start there

Selaznog

Wow, this looks fantastic! I agree with HandSandwich though...the roof really bugs me. If you're going to keep the corrugated metal, I think it would look better if there weren't just random sheets of it. Maybe make it look more like there was a hole, so they patched it up

Havoc89

That concept is awesome. I hope you can do justice to it. Looking forward to this

Zelenkov

Subscribed! Fantastic start!

cholden

Great first post!

GabrielP

Wow, this is incredible, cant wait to see more.

Mr Smo

aaaaaaaaawesome work, i agree with the roof tiles.

buhtichka

Beautiful work! I also can't wait to see it finished! excellent textures - could you show how your texture maps?
gratz!

SimonT

i'm impressed. that looks really good already!

RogerP

well if we are to judge by what you've done so far, this is going to be amazing. Keeping an eye on this one.

Jonsnow

great start!

Alex04se

Thank you for your comments.
mini up.

c22dunbar thanks, fixed
HandSandwich, Selaznog thanks, I will edit the roof

Man this is awesome. I cant wait to see where the lighting takes this. It will really set it off. Keep up the awesome work.

MrNinjutsu

Man does this have a lot of potential! Keep up the strong work, and it would be sweet to see more texture flats.

I'm confused.. do you vertex blend those two textures together in UDK or decal one on top of the other. Someone drop a key word I can google to research this technique please! I'm assuming you are vertex blending those, right?

Zack Fowler

Yeah, I believe they used this technique quite a bit on Uncharted and Crysis, and probably quite a few other titles by now. I don't know if there's an official name for it, but probably something like "biased alpha blend". You essentially crunch the alpha transition to take place within a small range (like .5 to .55) and combine the vertex paint alpha with a noise map texture to add natural-looking detail and variation. It looks like there's additional shader fanciness here in a fake shadow effect that follows just after the transition from plaster to brick, which really helps sell it.

Looking great so far!

reverendK

basically like this I imagine.

ZacD

Exactly like that I imagine.

Poloboo

if you want my criticism....... it could do with.. well... being a bit less awesome because its making me cry with jealousy.... you're texture work is phenomenal!

brandonorden

Whoa. It's looking great! Keep up this level of quality everywhere and you're sure to have an awesome scene.

I'll second the folks asking for more texture flats or breakdowns, it'd be cool to see more. When you have time of course.

Kuki

Everything's is so well balanced visually, the final piece is going to look gorgeous, keep sharing please!

buhtichka

Oh cool ! really really nice! Forgot to mention that i also love the lighting !!! Excellent job!

Alex,

This is very inspirational! If you have time, would you mind posting your material breakdown with screen shots?! I'm really curious how you're getting that shadow under your stucco.

Thanks,
Tony.

Marchwarden

I'll just hop on the bandwagon and say this looks fantastic, great start. Can't wait for more.

stxtch

Beautiful work so far.

There's a really nice subtle stylization to the detailed realism of the concept, especially in the trees and such. It'd be nice to see that carried over into 3D as you move on.

Hey man, give this a try. There are tons of ways to vertex paint and I've seen lots of 3D websites offer their material set up. I don't think this is the best video I've seen on the subject but it is a great video to introduce you to the technique:

Love how well it's matching that neat and unique art style from the concept art so far!

Alex04se

hello
Thank you all for your comments.

Yes, links are correct, I was doing my stuff on the basis of these lessons. I redid it just a little bit, to get the best effect.

As the time will make screenshots of the material.

Rhoutermans

Insane..this is going to be way too good

sltrOlsson

Very nice indeed! Don't forget your tree and the house in the foreground though! It really helps with the composition! Excited to see some more!

aaronmwolford

Wicked! Subscribed.

I'd be very surprised if this doesn't make it into the Weekly Recap.

Great job on the texture work so far! Subscribed and waiting with interest!

Artist_in_a_box

holy moley thats nice!

Alex04se

Hi all.
Remade grass. The new version like me much more)
Now make the platform and make a tree




tree. Only normal, and occlusion map

Kuki

Grass is absolutely spot on this time

I think you need some kind of detail to ground a little bit better the building on the platform. keep going looks great

Alex04se

Yes, the platform is still in progress
Much more added or changed

m4dcow

I think the scale of some of the chunks of the platform confuse the scale of the scene a bit, but like you say it is still a work in progress.

The trees look cool though, very interesting shapes.

m4dcow

I was also wondering about the water stain/drip texture you have. Are they decals, or are they vertex painted?

If they are vertex painted did you use a separate UV channel to map them to the top of the walls where they should be, or did you just make sure that they lined up with the normal tiling UV set?
