Colosseum
 

Here is something I decided to do. started from scratch in Maya. The hardest part as far is getting good ref pics of the Colosseum. I have a few the I have been using. Here is some progress pics. Alot of detail still to be added

Here is a screen crab of what I got for now. I am starting to add all the small details. The colums on each level actually have a different design so I must change that. after the outside is done I will move to the inside. I must whatch gladiator tonight and get alot of screen grabs from it.

quick render

I like this last render it looks heaps cool
lots of potential here for a sick looking scene , well done.

looking good!

Holy !! My computer wouldn't even open that file...not to speak from rotating it ;)

I see that on the really loooong numbers on the upper left of your screen...

well done !!

My system will handle it but for interactivity I have to hide alot of the stuff.

Very nice:). I did the same model a few years ago in Rhino and had to stop, my machine couldnt handle all the detail.

new render. added some detail on the top level also fixed the pilars on the second level to match the real colosseum.

Great stuff! Keep it up!
Could you describe how did you make one of the levels? By duplicateing?

Nice work roach!! Looking good!!

Tidy Stuff!!! And a nice full Outliner!!! Coooool!!

Jango

just a simple duplication using the initial parts from the original post. well alot off guess work to get the part rotating and dublicating correctly. There is 76 arches or doors in the colosseum to represent the real one. At the moment it is round but the colosseum is oval in shape, so I must fix this later on.

very nice roach !!looks the same as real one how long did it take you?

if I add all the time between work and the fiance...it is about 2 -3 hours.
