Railroad Miniature Assets

Enderay · Jan 2016

Some old assets that I made back in 2013-2014 for a personal project. It was a pretty big area of terrain that was going to be like a small miniature railroad. But I decided to scrap it because it wasn't good and was never getting done. I had about 50 assets including some trees and such but I decided to only re-render the once that looked "okej-ish"

I love these! I really hope you get a chance to render them all out together as a set on some "terrain"

The only piece of feedback I have is that the bases don't really look like they belong. Partly I think it's that the pieces look like they are just sitting on top of them (rather then glued to them), but I think it's also that they look too clean and distract from the models themselves. Most of the miniature bases I've seen are either matte or terrain colored.

Thanx

yea i had hope to do that as well but in the end i didn't really liked how it turned out. I worked on this scene for a few months when I was "between two jobs" and it just got way to big :P

I agree that the bases dont fit but they were not planned in. I Just had them as a Turntable thingy :P

Here are some old renders in MentalRay. And how the scene was actually was going to look. And a whitebox version of the entire "map".

I agree, it looks like it was a huge project! The stuff you did render out (especially that cabin on the lake and the train over the bridge) look really good! You've really captured the feeling of these being minatures!

Thanks for sharing! If do you end up poking at the some more in the future, please post more!
