Cryo Pod [WIP]

Kiser Designs

Hey PC,

This is an asset I am working on for a class project. I still need to add in some small details, like hinges and some more bolts. And I need to work on the render, max was running super slow with the material on it, so that's what the last render has a basic mat. Crits please

[UPDATE] This is the final version of the Cryo Pod. This is the low poly with normals.



(Paint Over) I am struggling to come up with a good color scheme, any ideas would be appreciated.









Here are the original concept sketches and a simple paint over I did.

Here are some better renders.

I think you should exaggerate your detail a lot more...
maybe think about the functions of the piece? maybe looking at some references, not to copy things but to use it as a platform for your own work. the more function you give this thing the more fleshed out it'll look and feel.

try telling a story with it?

im no professional but i usually try to approach things in that way, it makes modeling fun and rewarding. adding little nobs that do a certain task, screens that display precise info of the cryoed-person's vitals...i dont know i hope that rant helps....

I totally agree with your rant. This is just one part of a larger prop, which is just one piece of a large mechanism in an environment. There is a platform that I am working on too, that these pods will sit on, as well as computer terminals that control them and the crane machine that moves them.

I will for sure take your advice and push the detail some more. Thx AR

Quick paint over, all crits welcome, I am struggling to come up with a good base.

the frist thought that come to my mind is that the monochrome is hoding you back

try introducing some colors

the has a bit of goldish tint and that feels more interesting than the

Slap on some kind of cool display somewhere, and perhaps some warm red, green lights here and there to get some other colors into it.

@Danielmn - I agree that the colors are not great, ill work on adding in some colors

@Cheese - There is going to be a display panel at the top, the extruded part, i forgot to put that in the paint over. I will work on the colors and post again.

Thx for the tips guys
