This is a textured version of my model of The Mole from the classic Thunderbrids TV series.
The main issue I had with this was deciding between realism and fidelity. I wanted it to look cool, but the “real” reference for this is a plastic model from the 60s… so… it’s hard to really strike a balance.
I hope you like it anyway. I plan to make Thunderbird 2 next and render them together in the same scene.
This is great! It looks real - in the sense of photoreal, it looks like photos of a model, which I think was partly what you were aiming for, so good work!
I can’t wait to see T2, that was always my favourite.
Thank you! Textures were done in Substance Painter (no surprise there)
Thank you and exactly. The image I am trying to replicate is a plastic model from the TV show, so I think “photo realism” has to be relative. Glad it kind of hits the spot I was going for though.
T2 was my favorite too Though I also had a soft spot for T3 (the few times you actually saw it).
