old furnice room
 

this is a old furnace room I found that I decided to model. I have played with the lighting until I liked it,and have some more modeling to do before I texture.

I like it. Can't wait to see those textures.

yeah - looks like a good start!:beer:

Ha, this had the potential to be really creepy!

Nice work so far!

Looking forward to the textures. :beer:

I too am looking forward to seeing this textured! Yes, it could look REALLY ratty, so go to town with the textures!

I am done modeling this is a update. I will start texturing now.

it's looking good - though the left bottom corner is maybe looking a little bare composition wise. also - what is the cube like thing around the pipe?

thanks arran. Yeah I know I left that left part bare because there will be broken up concrete there. The box is one of those aluminum heating things, I forget what there called.

Banksta, it's a start but I wouldn't say that the modeling phase is complete.
I have spent 20 years working in places like this as i'm a qualified heating and ventilation engineer and there are things missing from this room that just don't sell it as convincing.For example you have some sort of air handling unit or chilling unit on the floor but not a single pipe or cable attached to it.The round cylinder against the wall is either a clorifier or a boiler but again has only one pipe and no cables and there are no valves or gauges at all for control in this room.
These are just a few things that jump out at me straight away and I don't want to sound too critical so take this advise with a pinch of salt if you wish.

I see what your saying jsproog but I am modeling from a pic and thats the only pieces in view. If I knew more about it as you do I would add more. For now I will just go with what I have so I can start a new model. Thanks for the info though.

Will there be texture? before you move on?

almost done texturing. Here is update.

hmmm.... i think your textures still need quite a bit of work. a lot of the textures, like the back wall and the crack on the floor, look too big and stretched. also, everything looks too clean and shiny - i would try adding some maps to your spec and also toning stuff down a bit. :)

I agree with arran, Some of the textures need to be scaled down. The back wall and the post textures are a bit large.

When you maps what do mean Arran?
