Olitech Industries Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Making a record of this build here. Prometheus Carrier model in progress by my work colleague architect Mark Jordan. I'm directing him, but he is building the 3D model. Like super fast. I will be texturing, lighting, populating and composing. In true Olitech Industries fashion, he is taking 'canon' dimensions as much as possible, then filling in the blanks with real world precedents. It will be one of the permanent homes for my VF 1:1 project. I will be shooting HDRI panos from it for free so that other artists may use it for lighting and reflections. Examples to come on my VF posts. But this project truly needs it's own thread. And thus it begins... He completed the top middle hangar bay the first week. First 5 main elevators.

Olitech Industries Posted May 7, 2022 Author Share Posted May 7, 2022 (edited) Also in the second week, some very basic lighting and texturing from me. I lightly modified and dropped in Michal Ryan's (Senovis) VF1 for scale while mine is still under construction at Skunk Works.

Olitech Industries Posted May 7, 2022 Author Share Posted May 7, 2022 At the end of the second week, I managed to squeeze out some basic paint colours before leaving the office. Flat Haze Grey for the exterior, Gloss Marine White for the interior. I bumped up the Pad Eye size from about 6" to 10". Anti Skid paint on the Deck.. Hazard Stripes on the Deck, Platforms and Bay Doorways. . I lined up the 'lanes' on the deck to line up with the tracks in the ceiling. Bay lighting colour is a combination of 3000k (high pressure sodium), 5000k (in mercury vapour) and 6500k in metal halide. Or simply yellow, white teal and white blue. This project will mainly be Shader and Lighting work for me, as Mark is not as comfortable at complex PBR Shaders as I am...yet. He will be. Oh he will be.....

Olitech Industries Posted May 9, 2022 Author Share Posted May 9, 2022 A little more progress today on the deck texture, and signage graphics. Starting to add the support vehicles - standard tow tractor for now, as I haven't built have any Macross ones yet. This one was a freebie from grabcad.

Olitech Industries Posted May 20, 2022 Author Share Posted May 20, 2022 Some exterior modelling by mark jordan, lit and rendered by me. Still a lot in progress, but you can see where this is going. Hopefully! Basic textures for now until I distress them for scale. FYI, I know the catapults are backwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olitech Industries Posted May 20, 2022 Author Share Posted May 20, 2022 Actually nope! The catapults are not backwards. They are the Miyatake design. Game on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olitech Industries Posted May 27, 2022 Author Share Posted May 27, 2022 All work and no play makes Olitech Industries a dull studio. This is now where we take our breaks. In the Prometheus Hangar. DYRL soda pop machine with TV colours! Work in progress by my colleague Stella Kim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
