Dawn of War Fan Art

justintaylor

Wanted to have a small break from my current Roman environment project  so i decided to make some fan art of a game really dear to me. That Game being Dawn of War serious pre 2 and 3. Always have viewed the Space Marine power generators as some what iconic when i played, so i wanted to try making a remastered version while still being true to the original. The power generator is seen below.

Made the low poly and exploded the mesh for the high to low poly bake down. Using substance painter to the high to low and exported it to unreal to see how it looks in engine.

Good ol' days Did some modding for this game too!
Cool stuff so far!

More or less finished the main texturing and baking process in substance painter. Pretty happy with the way the bake and metal paint came out. So what i am planning to do at a later date is come back and change the colour of this to white so i can make a instance in unreal. For the meantime however i am going with the Blood Raves colour scheme. 

Exported the textures out and added it to model in unreal with a base emissive material.

More of a dawn of war 2 guy but more warhammer stuff, the happier i'll be.

Though I will say, I think the generators in dawn of war 2 look like a more developed version of dawn of war generators

Might be useful reference or something

Warhammer has such a special place in my heart. Ah I actually prefer DoW 2 visually without a doubt but DoW 1 game play is what really sells it for me personally.

See i thought about making a DoW 2 gen at first as your right its much more developed but could not resist the call of the 'classic' generator lol. Thanks for the ref thou i might do one later on down the line XD

Changed the roughness and metallic maps a tiny bit. Added some lights and a little base. Things i need to do now is work on the power glow cylinders now as well as playing around with the lighting and start thinking about presentation. Crit and ideas always welcome.

Had little go at presenting it a bit better.

Uuh nice rework! 
I think it would be a good idea to tone done the warning stripes. They  look very bright compared to the rest of the texture.

Keep it up and make the other buildings too xd
