Hey, I've been making this for a little while the cool Star Citizen corridor. Here are some shots of early progress, almost done with modeling now need to add more of decals and do the texturing.
Original piece/ my inspiration was made by awesome Matthew Trevelyan Johns
I'm trying to match this style most work seems to be done in decal department.
Thinking of adding something around the doors at the end so it's not so empty, any suggestions?

@EliasWick Thanks, dude! This is all done in 3ds max and rendered in UE4 nothing fancy, at this point haven't even started texturing yet
Input panel or bio-metric scan or you can just make the door bigger. You can also add benches or chairs.
Great job by the way.
@DeathstrokeFTW it's actually pretty low poly. And yeah I used decal trimsheet.
Will need to retouch roughness.
General question out of curiosity: I've never made a 1:1 "copy" of someones art, i "steal" but i always try to bring something of my own to the table.
When you recreate something like this, how much are you motivated to replicate every fine detail exactly like the original? (example: the dirt)
I ask this because i am a perfectionist and i would push it, on the other hand i never had interest in doing exact replicas, because i always thought: whats the point? its already there....But I can understand the challenge it means.
So do you want to make a indistinguishable copy of the original or are you satisfied when you reach an equal technical and artistic level.
@Ryusaki I aim to create similar not exact result. The reason I do this is that I really like it, I mean I don't think this could get much better than it already is that's why I couldn't resist making it. Also, I tried to find an awesome concept (painting) to recreate but couldn't find one. All in all I do this to learn, and having an awesome example helps me to push this further. At the end of the day if I can replicate the original piece I'm more than happy. Also I did add a fan that was not there originaly and Im still looking to add cool pieces to this. And yeah this is my first Scifi environment.
@DeathstrokeFTW
here is one (not sure if this is a final one) I have multiple ones.
@Klawd Thanks!
@macoll thanks, Will do
Any 1 knows how to brighten only darks in ue4?
Heres AirCooler quickly textured
I´m learning how to set up my mesh decals and started to use a translucent/translucent material, because I can have access to the metal channel.
Best regards,
Michael
Thanks, @LVG I'm planning on doing dirt/wear and roughness variation with decals
