[UE4] Downed Bomber Environment

JohnHandyArt

Hey, this is my first post here. I have been lurking around for ages and figured I should actually become part of this awesome community!

So I am working on an environment in Unreal Engine and would love some crit its still very early but I want to make this scene an amazing portfolio piece.

So less talking more pictures!






















So these are some of the first sculpts I did, I then retopologized all the assets I created and Unwrapped them. Textured them using a PBR workflow and started to create a scene in Unreal 4














So that’s the progress so far, as you can see still more work to be done Ill keep posting updates as I progress.

Any Critique would be awesome.


Thanks for checking out my thread,

I think the bombers body needs a lot more work, right now to me it looks like its a building created at a theme park that was designed to vaguely look like a plane, versus a plane that actually crashed. The windows supports are too thick and overall make it look like a block. It should be more smoothed out http://cdn-www.airliners.net/aviation-photos/photos/6/7/1/1371176.jpg Try using references of the B-29 Superfortress I think that might be the kind of bomber you're looking for. Hope that helps.

Hey thanks for the reply, I should of put a picture of the reference I was using sorry.
I started this environment for a University assignment, I was restricted in making something from either Warhammer or Star Wars. So I very loosely picked Warhammer.

I used this concept, so the plane is based of this.



But I agree the plane still needs a lot of work.

I'm currently working on:
Adding more features to the plane (pipes, tubing, the cockpit, weapons possibly)
Adding more foliage and rocks to fill the scene
Possibly redoing the terrain
and re-working the material shaders for the ground to get some awesome blending.
