[UDK] Interior environment project [WIP]

FractaL

Okay this was a dead thread I created around May, got busy with stuff such as working on an indie game (still doing that), then I got a job which took up so much time, and along came school. The only 3D I did for the longest time was low poly stuff for this awesome iOS game which I won't talk about here...

Anyways, this old project is now back in motion. I lost my old blockout that I did like 6 months ago when I did a fresh install of windows, so I did a new one for this thing. Modular pieces are below to show how this will be constructed. This is my first REAL environment, so although I'd like to stay optimistic, I can't promise I'm going to blow you guys away. I've been drawing like crazy and teaching myself art, so lets see if that helps me!

Wish me luck!

Oniram

this looks like itll be good. cant wait to see more.

Really good start and the concept is cool too (I haven't played Crysis 2 either, so don't know if it is already in the game). I'm in the same position as you, in that I have just started my own little scene, using UDK, shaders, lighting etc.

Sorry for not giving an update in a while, to be honest I've been caught up with school projects and stuff. I've done 2 props since the last update that I made, but I plan on finishing this scene as soon as my finals are over. Anyways, I appreciate the motivation guys! This otherwise dead project has been revived!!!

Dennis: Thanks man!
Oniram: Thanks, I plan on working on this more when I get exams out of the way! Still in highschool here.
JamieRIOT: Yeah, I agree the concept is really beautiful.


EDIT (11/12/2012):
This project has been discontinued, however I'd like to go back to it and actually finish it. When I made this I didn't have a very good workflow, nor did I have good knowledge of what I was doing. Now that I have a bit more experience I plan on doing this scene some time in the future, esp since Dariz has posted! Thanks for the motivation boost Dariz!

EDIT! (12/28/2012):
Okay time to get back to work on this thing! I'm starting all over, lost my old blockout when I reinstalled windows! My old blockout was disproportionate anyways hehe.

Dariz

Hey FractaL so far it kicks ass man. It didn't make it in the game in the end but I was very happy doing it. If you manage to finish I'll post your process and portfolio everywhere I can so you get some exposure. Cheers and all the best. Daniel

Okay guys, I'm doin it! I'm gonna finally do this environment! I've been busy with school and a minimum wage job, but now I have the free time to do some portfolio work finally!

EDIT: Can a moderator on the forum change the title? This isn't UDK!
