[FINISHED] V2 Factory Bunker

PolyPotatoes

Hello everyone!

A few months ago I started CGMA course with Clinton Crumpler, unfortunatelly i didn't finish it then but I'm working on it and I hope I'll show you final results in a few next weeks. Now I want to show you two screenshots and I'll be grateful for some feedback from you.

It is V2 Rockets factory bunker, II world war. I've made it in UE4.

The images are a bit on the small side, it'd be easier to see details with higher-res images and a few more angles
The concrete texture looks nice, especially the up close view on the second image.

Are you basing this off of any specific reference images?

PolyPotatoes

@CybranM no problem, here are another shots, I didn't know what the standards here are so I didn't want to add too much and too big shots

Yes, placement of the "rooms" is based on real plan of d'Eperlecques and the rest is something like mix of different photos of real bunkers and underground environments. So far, the biggest challenge for me was to get different concrete materials but still cohesive to each other. 

Lighting and postpro isn't finished, I'll work with that when I'll finish all props.

Rocket's parts are based on real dimensions of V2 rockets. Decals are made as a deffered decals.

Looks very promising. Keep it up!

PolyPotatoes

@Brain_Slave Thank you friend! I'll do my best

Hello after a small brake, I've asked a few great artist for a feedback and decided to change a few things, add some primitive shapes to catch more interesting areas. Also I started to create highpoly versions of rockets and generators so I'll post an update soon with finished props Thank you for your advices!

Do you have any references for the wheels? I would assume the wheels should be unpainted, and if they were painted that the sides touching the rails would be worn and showing metal instead of the paint.
The whole scene is looking great so far

PolyPotatoes

That's a good point! I checked similar object references and I am going to change it Thank you !

PolyPotatoes

So like I said, I've changed it a little bit, I think it looks more natural now

PolyPotatoes

and a few new shots

Nuclear Angel

This is a really cool idea and you have some great execution already. But I think you should consider adding a real set piece, as right now the bunker consists of Grey concrete, steel, rockets and Nazi Flags. Something that would tell a story would be nice, like a lab table with different materials and you can infer that they have been locked inside the bunker for a month or something similar.
The table could be made out of worn out wood, some bottles on the table and maybe a board with papers on them with research papers, some personal items and all with interesting lighting. This could break up the hard and lifeless materials that a bunker consists of. Just spitballing ideas here but I hope you see where I am coming from.

PolyPotatoes

Thank you Angel for your advices and you're 100% right! I didn't show it on the scene so far but I am going to add some story to it. I am not sure how to make it yet but I have a few ideas in my head so I hope it will look much more natural than it is now

Next big part, crane

Fuel machines

"Feuergefährlich" sounds terrible wrong for me as an German, in fact I never encountered this word in my entire life (forty years).
"Brandgefahr" would be better, or "leicht entflammbar".

Also maybe use some gothic fonts:

PolyPotatoes

@Jean_Pierre_Seiler mmm nice! I am not familiar with german so I have used google translator :P but now I will definitely change it. I appreciate, thank you very much!

ShifflettArt

Well this is just really cool looking. I haven't tackled anything so elaborate yet, so this seems like quite a feat to me. Nice forms and textures from what I can see. Can't wait for the finished scene.

PolyPotatoes

thank you @ShifflettArt , I hope to show you guys finished scene soon

Wow, those props look super awesome! Can't wait to see them in the final scene, I'm doing Clinton's course as well at this moment, it's amazing to see how your project comes along.  

PolyPotatoes

Haha, yea it was a long journey but I have learnt a lot during this course, it has given me solid fundamentals and showed me a good direction so I hope to see some hot stuff in your artstation soon thank you @ClaraTan , if everything goes well I'll show final shots this month

CybranM

Your texturing is great!
"simple" and believable materials really sell the pieces

PolyPotatoes

@CybranM thank you mate! texturing is imo my weakness still so it is very motivating to hear that other artists like my textures

PolyPotatoes

A few final screenshots. Special thanks to all talented artist who helped me with their amazing feedback!

Solid stuff! I wish that someone would take this and make an actual game with it.

I've read about the marketplace rules that can get in the way a bit. Can you tell what got cut/changed due to that rulebook?

PolyPotatoes

Of course, the main and only change is that there is no nazist symbols like swastik. But the textures and master materials are prepared to add it on your own if someone wants to have it there
