ThomasJ

Hey, so we have some ideas for what we want to do for our scene. I thought it would be cool to try and create an area that could really tell a story in just one shot. I was inspired by Half-Life and District 9 how they had one big structure, and very powerful looking, in the background overlooking the area.

So with that big structure, some sort of alien ship(not yet designed), we can tell a story through an environment of how the society reacted to it, and lived with it. So like some started worshiping it. Some want it to go away. Also have TVs showing another shot of the ship. And also feel like you get a look at this world and know what they been through right before they get destroyed.

For a base concept i found this one. It captured the feel of how we want to environment to feel. Feels kinda like home but destroyed. Has a Walmart and shopping carts.



Not great at concept art but some ideas:




And then a quick blockout:

Hey!! just wanted to wish you guys good luck.

I'll probably be coming upstairs occasionally to see how you're doing. haha

rubenvoorhees1

so we figured the chains and cables were actually from the ship with a more plated metal feel for them, with cables intertwined with them to end on a 2 sided prong that looks like a claw or arm. and since some are just adapting with the arm there and some dont like it there would be caution tape around the base of the prongs and a few actually detached as if some1 too a cutter to it and having it sparking. want to get a hard shaped with organic feel to the ship so now its on

killahk

Hey whats up guys, sweet to see you here mang. I like the birds eye view you got going on

churro818

loving the idea guys, cant wait to see what direction you take that mother ship.

rubenvoorhees1

here what i got with the idea for the chain and wires. these are just using tilled textures.the chain is a 1024 map but gona turn it to a 512 and the wire is just a 256 map but looks great. lol might be going for a covenant feel like halo for the alien stuff

Revan

This is my first asset for the scene still tweaking it a bit but here is what i got so far.

professorXXX

hells yah! win it GW style...

good stuff you guys;) Love the walmart idea.

killahk

that tv is 750 polys...

Revan

Ok Killahk, its now 400 pollys just for you

rubenvoorhees1

better texture for the links, max render but will b in unreal

killahk

Good job E I knew you could optimize that baby even more
I'm liking that chain link rubo, keep up the good work

Revan

Heres the store that will be shown in the far back under the ship

professorXXX

looks good:) But small for a walmart...just copy and paste about a 5000 more feet on to it:) good job.

crazyfingers

Be careful with the rope and chains, too much detail on 'em can make 'em hard to read unless they're REALLY close to the foreground.

I agree looks a little small, usually what i do to help myself out with scale is create a biped that is if you are using max and just make the biped 6 feet tall and place accordingly

killahk

maby this might help you out, yours doesnt look like a real one, and i think you need to make it more next-gen


love, killah

Revan

Thanks Nick, and yes i did model it next to a 6foot biped so its to scale but its gunna be kinda far back their but i will make some more changes to it , thanks. Also for killa its not a wall mart it a w mart it cant be a wall mart so yeah... lol

Also the walls are modular so u can make it as long as need be, this is just the pieces of them together to get an idea for the final scene it wont really be this same shape in a sense. and the pics are kinda deceiving in the fact of the tiles , two of them make up a 6 foot tall person lol

ThomasJ

Here's a tent I've been working on. It supposed to made up of a bunch of towels, tarps, and stuff laying around near the store where the people camped out near the space ship.

Modeled in max but used zbrush for the cloth folds.textures are 1024x1024. I still need to go back and do more work on zbrush and texturing though.
Havent done cloth in Zbrush much before so was learning as i went along and want to go back to fix it.





Also, here's a blockout shot with some of the assets made so far:




I think once we get in the ship, chains, and claws in it will start to look pretty cool.

Revan

I like it my W mart looks like the end piece needs to be re-colored to match the walls fix that soon.

killahk

ooohhh ok haha, i thought that maybe the AL had fallen off

cadninja

looking good so far Get that chain in the level!

Ack Master

i loved the concept pic very nice

ThomasJ

Haven't updated in a while, but we are still working on it. Here are a few shot of the scene so far.

Lighting still needs a lot of work. Kinda having a hard time with outside lighting in Unreal. Been trying to have that big claw cast a shadow over the foreground .Any tips on exterior lighting would be great

Cody

Ya, lighting in Unreal can be a bitch. I think if you put a bright orange light in the center of the bottom of the ship, to really draw attention to it, and a few dim bounce lights the same color in certain places on the ground, you should be good to go. And keep the rest as is.

ThomasJ

Finally done!

Picklock

Super cool, the scene looks tight!!! Congrats and good luck!
