Complex UV Layout in Maya
Over the last couple of years UV layout in Maya has changed for the better. In this course we're going to be taking a look at some of those changes as we UV map an entire character

If so where are windows/exits/openings or weaponry to attack outside forces?

I would be interested to see a wireframe, also if you have some other shots so I can see what else is going on that would be cool.

Also there seems to be too much empty room. A bunker should be well fortified, and have enoguh suplies to hold off an attack for quite some time. I suggest having random ammo dopisits, weaponry and so on lying around.
Um.. might help if you explain what this is for.

Ah, but what about nuclear bunkers? Simply a protection from outside influences. Although I don't know if hiding from a nuclear attack in a bunker with glowing green ooze on the floor is the wisest of moves...Originally posted by twisteddragon33
i thought bunkers are military strongholds that offer prottion while you attack outside forces?
As for crits, same as the others. lighting. particularly just above the door in that 2nd shot. In a room of that size, if intended for human use, I don't think any shadow shud truely fade to black. Consider strip lighting, or if u still want to keep the dank mood, maybe some red backup lights. And some guiding lights to the doors... Just my 2 cents
Personally I love work on environments, its like good bass- it really gives meaning to the flow of the piece. I just can't be bothered to do them myself
nice one!

Looking good mate - really good start.
I like the rarely used / poorly maintained look (inc the faint numbering on the doors). You could look at adding some more variation on top of your base textures - for instance you could add wear to the floor near the doors (where they could have scraped the ground during the years of opening), cracks in the tile work on the ground (heavy items dropped etc) and maybe look at slight bump mapping to show the grouting gap between the times (should give you some nice little highlights on that section) - On the brick an concreate work again you could look at variation like damage/wear an tear (stained walls from leaking pipes, cracks, chips etc). Could even add a few rusted signs on the walls (for scale) or continue with the faded painted decals as you've done on the doors.
Keep us posted mate!
Cheers,
Trev
