THRONE ROOM - Throne of inexorable extinction - NateAndrew & Orkarma

Orkarma

Hey,
NateAndrew and I will be working in a team for this contest, we hope you enjoy our idea and any feedback is welcome as long as its constructive and whatnot, from what i've read so far on polycount there is brilliant community so the lack of constructive feedback shouldn’t be an issue.

Happy posting .

Project synopsis:

Civilisation as we know it has reached its peak of technological advancement and sucked mother earth dry of almost all resources. They had become so obsessed with technology that this led to there inevitable extinction, though technology was able to live on, most life-forms could not. In time Nature, which had been so compassionate to mankind, decided that the earth needed to be appropriated back to what once belonged. Nature and the elements discarding humanity like snake sheds it’s skin leaving only a thick husk of technology behind.

Programs being used:

Adobe Photoshop
Crazybump [normal map gen]
Cinema 4D [modelling]
Unreal Engine 4 [realtime engine]
Substance Pro

Here is the initial throne concept. We went with a throne that would be controlled by a droid-like drone atop the seat as we wanted to focus on machines keeping the room alive. Their are cables that come from the drone to power the chair. Cables also run from the Throne to other machines.

As usual appreciate any feedback.

NateAndrew

Here we are trying to figure out where to throne will be positioned in relation to elevated spaces and stairways. We are also trying to figure out the area around the throne.

Ignore how scruffy the sketches are, its just stuff we are throwing down to describe to each other what we are talking about. It makes sense to us.

NateAndrew

Here we have just tried to tidy up that basic blackout from before. Slowing introducing some more shapes in the form of pipes etc.

Right now we are adding the main throne area into the lockout.

can't wait to texure this, main inspiration for this came from the cooling towers in the shinra buildings, thinking i might put some japanglish when this go's into texturing , feed back on this would be helpful ^^

Orkarma

First time using substance painter seems legit, interface is a little glitchy for me but after adjusting the settings managed to reach a smooth middle ground, having a play with stock textures for now but will eventually have to make my own in the substance designer.

we are currently modeling the throne and railings atm, then moving on to other objects in the scene. Here are some snaps...
