Gate 267

Done for a Sci-fi corridor competition. The goal was to show the final gate for a prison station orbit around the moon. I want to make an inhospitably brute mechanical scene leaving no hope for escape.

Exceptional job on the modeling and texturing. I also enjoyed the scene you built. I can’t figure out why a thumbnail image is not showing. I hope people won’t skip past it, because you really did a nice job on this.

Badass, is the smoke and lazer cycles?

Thanks man i’m really glad you appreciate it. The most important is i did it. It was challenging but really fun to do.

Thanks man. Noooo unfortunately the deadline was too short for me to put cgi smoke. I did it in post production.

Really cool image and amazing work, congrats !

Awesome modeling, awesome image.
You won the contest, right?

Deadlines… wish I had those :stuck_out_tongue:

This is awesome,

rated it 5 stars and saved it to my pinterest board.

Bravo man it really looks totally cold and hopeless. Great job on the hardsurface.

Those are some bad ass details youve got there! PS is that noise or is that a bump map on some parts, it tends to look like noise. Also i noticed some bubbles like shapes in the smoke, what is that?

Stunning hard surface modelling! the texturing and materials are extremely well done too!

Is that smoke added using the compositor/post-process? or is it volumetric?

And i’m guessing that the “Bubbles” in the smoke mentioned in a previous post is heat distortion from the vents? Guessing you used the glass filter in PS? or something similar? Looks great to me though!

5 stars :smiley:

Thanks. GLad you like it.

Yeah bro i won. I have now 2 bad ass addons for modeling. Speedflow and asset management. Oh yeahhhh.

No it’s post prod stuff to simulate the heat like engines do.

No unfortunately deadline was short to simulate all thats stuff and danm i wish i did it. Next time for sure. And yeah it is heat distorsion. I don’t use Photoshop all my post production is in Gimp. Opensource workflow

From an artistic point of view I don’t think awesome does it justice, I’m a noob to Blender and from playing with it I have decided that I will never be in your class of ability, but I have one question, it appears to be running on a track if so how does it aim left and right? I was a technician in the navy for 20 years and worked on CIWS so any automated weapon gets me curious.

Awesome job on everything, top quality, but if you wanted to escape the gun ,you ran down the side it could not rotate to the side on the rail and escape security perhaps ,i like it anyway

super work ! awesome details thank for sharing !

First of all man don’t say that…YOU CAN. With the right resources, goals and work you definitely can because first I AM NOT awesome at all and trust me when i say that. SO NEVER SAY NEVER.

Second you absolutely right it can’t and that’s the mistake i realize after posting the image. So man if you have any suggestions about a rotative system or other please tell me send me references so i can fix this crap ha ha. I have another one to do for a tutorial and i want to get it right. And yeah if you have books too i can read about i would love too.

And never say never oki.:wink:

Its has a rotating barrel :wink:
