Another SciFi Corridor [WIP]

VictorSantos

Hi there!

It’s been a while since my last thread, I’ve been... kind of distracted and busy but I’m focused now in finishing this Sci-Fi Corridor. I’m making it modular so I’m just gonna use a single texture for the whole sheet, as always I’m gonna render and build it in UDK.



This is the first screenshot from UDK, It's just for the blocking and the testing of the modular pieces.

I'm still making the modular parts, no texture and materials yet.

Cheers!

I'm thinking about adding some curves to the scene to make some variatons in the main shapes, maybe with round doors or something like that.

Kind of this reference from a Mass Effect corridor.



I'll give it a try.

thinking of any props to dress the scene?

That's a good question, I've been thinking about some kind of crates, wires, tubes...

But I'm open to listen your thoughts, feel free to join the brainstorming! heheh

Cheers!

ha! i was thinking the same thing with my generic sci fi offering. breaking up the strieght lines i was thinking more with textures than geometric changes. you might have a good point there... hmmmm

I'll try it with geometry for now, thanks Nistrum!

Ok, This is my first attempt to break the main shape.

I'm giving more curves to the door shape and I'm thinking about making a cockpit, rooms, etc.



Cheers!!

Coming along nicely, definitely a lot of improvement from the starting piece. Are you going to be adding anything else to those walls to make it more interesting?

Thank you!

Good point! Yes, I wanna make PC terminals, Maps of the ship and maybe lockers.

If you have anything in mind please don't hesitate to tell me.

Cheers!

VictorSantos

Ok! I'm back on it, I'm gonna make some panels and TVs!

I'll keep you posted!

good job bro! just fill up them walls and i think thisll be someplace that could def exist. the floor right now is the best part. the light gray bolts really add a lot because of the contrast caused by the rest of the dark grayness

VictorSantos

Everytime I think I got time for this environment something comes out...

Sorry for the delay but I got some tweaks on the corridor and the set, I added new floors, reflections to the material and I changed a little bit the post-process.



I'm gonna make side doors to new corridors and rooms and keep going with it.

Thanks for stopping by!

I'm liking this! The blur of the bloom looks so sweet.. and the environment looks promising. Nice lighting there too.

VictorSantos

Another little update, the door-side pillar.

Darkleopard

Looking nice. Is that a hipoly or a low poly bake of that pillar? The normals on the curve look a little blobby

Thanks buddy! It's just an update on the high poly version of the pillar, I have to polish it and bake it.

Cheers!

I think it needs a bit more color. The models are great but I feel like you need more color. It feels a little of cold, it reminds me of the first level of Marathon. Most of the greatest scifi environments that I can think of use multiple colors to compliment the main color. Killzone 3 had some beautiful sci-fi corridor environments, notice how they use multiple shades of blue, red and yellow, try imagining what these environments would look like if they only used one light color.
