PC-CSGO | AWP - Satellite

DesireeFernandes

Hello all!

Latest Update:



For this AWP (and possibly a DEagle after) I went with a sattelite-esque, paneled theme. I also want to integrate some of the neon, bright colours from sci-fi art of the 70's and 80's.


(reference)

Don't mind the crazy colours on everything besides the body, that was just me blocking sections out. This is my first time making a weapon for CS:GO so I'm slowly figuring everything out.





For now, which version of the body looks better? For the one with colours, the idea is that there's glowing lights coming from within the body. I'm not sure I like it yet, because there's something to the simplicity of just the panels.

The second version looks better, I would suggest to avoid working too much with glowing lights, since it's a flat surface.

DesireeFernandes

Yeah, I had a feeling that would be the case. I liked the plain version anyways, I'll just integrate colours elsewhere in the design. There's no way we can alter the normals of the guns, right? I know we can change the spec somehow, and the wear pattern, but I don't know how yet.

Also,are we restricted to 2048 textures max? Or can we scale up?

2048x2048 is max, no normals can be added, wear and spec is changed in the game itself, open console and write "workshop_workbench" there you will be able to change the wear and specs. note, to adapt the wear you should also work on the alpha channel in photoshop.

Alright, thanks for all the help!

Here's the latest version, with the intended colours layed out. I'm not sure how to texturize the flat parts at the moment.

An update on the texturing, I toned down the colours and added metal detailing to the majority of the gun. I'm going to add detailing on the handle and trigger guard next.

Muito bom

good stuff great linework

DesireeFernandes

Everything has its proper colour and texture now. I took it into Workbench to see how it looked, and I think it turned out pretty good. All that's left is maybe adjusting some colours and adding the custom wear pattern.

How did you do the detailing after you got all of the colors in place? 

DesireeFernandes

If you're talking about the paneling, I actually did that first. I took the Geo that was already on the AWP and selected sections of it to extrude. I then baked that onto the body in xNormal, and messed with the colours from there. I used a lot of overlays in Photoshop to retain the metal texture on everything while colouring the pieces.

I took my sweet time getting around to finishing this, haha. I'll lay out my new screens as I will in the final submission thread when it gets put up. Let me know if you see anything off or that could use a quick fix.

Let me know what you think!
