Pipe Scene

Chrono · February 2004

<div class="IPBDescription">EXPANDED!</div> i know you think this probably should be in the art forums but i dont think so because most modelers dont check there this is the expanded version of the pipes i did a while ago now its turning into a big industrial scene but im stumped on ideas on whatelse to add any ideas would be nice

Meh? Light strip up on top after teh boilers are done? All I can think of now... this is awesome. Hope some mapper uses it.

CoolCookieCooks · February 2004

time to get some textures on them ^_^

Jean_Luc_Picard · February 2004

How about these ideas:

A) A boiler/water heater/ Water Pressure Tank

B) A mini-model of the titanic (I dunno, just think it'd fit in sitting on the floor there)

C) A windows perhaps? (I dunno, is this 100% below ground, or is the roof even with the ground? If so, make a window w/ the lil hole thingy for light to come in)

D) A different view if possible (would make it easier for mappers to use I think)

E) Share the talent! (I wanna know how to model <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /> )

CoolCookieCooks · February 2004

err, i dont think a mapper would be using this...

Dark_Soul · February 2004

should be in art forums yes, way too high poly, but it's nice tho it's not very hard to model <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' />

ctx · February 2004

This would go nice with something cinematic, even though it wouldn't make it's way into a map.

Chrono · February 2004

alright thanks for the input so far ya i know it should be in the art forums but i already talked about that in my first post and ya its prolly easy to model but i was bored and i wanted to try something new
KEEP THE INPUT COMMING I NEED MORE IDEAS

Owen1 · February 2004

creamage... that is real sex-ay

CoolCookieCooks · February 2004

have a light coming from behind the fan making a shadow on the floor of the fan, thats really effective

Mendasp · February 2004

If that was an actual map you would be told:

The walls are too plain! add some interesting architecture there! Machinery... monitors, lights... etc <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' />

Black_Viper · February 2004

Whats the size compared to, is that lil door down at the bottom on the left wall large enought for a marine or just a skulk?
Great work i am astonished at your work. I would also like to add, that your pipes should be add to all NS and CO maps instead of the ones they have, your work is the great.

If you're asking me, I wouldn't like to think about it. Each flange is over 10k ^^. Probably around 300k overall...

CaptainPanaka · February 2004

yep... that's WHY I'm asking <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' />

Chrono · February 2004

Bijiy · March 2004

Looking good.

Chrono · March 2004

alright people new renders
first one with new roof area i think it looks pretty good but i thought the floor looked kinda empty so in the seconed one i changed the floor just a little <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' />
but now i think i went a bit overboard
i know there are some errors but i saw them too late in the rendering proccess
for some reason the first one took me 5 min to render but the seconed one took me an hour and a half go figure
im still waiting on those boiler pictures and ofcourse all crits are welcome

i like how you can see the pipes below the floor in the second one, but i think the grating is just too much. maybe if you had 2 or 3 of those window like grates in the first shot, it would break up the floor space without being overwhelming.

Vash_Fourty_Five_Lc · March 2004

I like the second one, the full grating floor adds a lot of atmosphere imho. Coming along nicely..but now the million dollar question. What the heck is this all gonna be used for anyways? I think it's safe to say right now it's just a render pic for a wallpaper or the such, other wise the poly count would make my comp break down and cry..

Chrono · March 2004

ok people i kinda changed the grating i think this looks better but im still waiting for those boiler pics of what you all think and sorry about the crap **** render i just dont have the time to put a full out render on

Billy_Silverfish · March 2004

The light behind the fan would be best done as a directional light, or at least moved some distance from the fan so it doesn't project onto the floor so hugely.

Chrono · March 2004

i was bored so....
the pictures speak for themselves
thanks for the idea one the light ill move it next render
(the seconed one is whats under all the grating)
