Demo Reel Production

Hey all, I know it may seem like I've got a bunch of WIP threads on the go, and well I do. But a lot of projects which are still in progress.

So over the next three months roughly I will be starting a few more and finishing off those which have gone unfinished so far. All of which will be completed for my demo reel.

Anyways I like this thread right now cause it doesn't give away what you will be seeing here. But the first screens should be coming shortly. Bear with me and please comment and crit where necessary.

Thanks!
-Alexander

thanks Neo Strider.
Progress is steady so things are good.
I'm not going to post any more wires I don't think, not of the scene anyways as it is becoming far too dense.
Even the occlusion are starting to look silly. So just have to finished modeling and then I can start preping for light and texture.

More progress still.
Benches have been omitted from the file until final rendering comes along as they have way too many polys.
Quick default physical sun/sky just for clearification.

Yeah see what happend with the rail ties is I was thinking more domestic/industrial rail when I built them. And they would be a lot less perfect. But after days of journey through the subway I realized my local transit authority hasn't used rail ties at all, instead metal brackets to fasten the tracks down. So I am going to have to re-visit that. But at the same time too I am contemplating building trains that would then cover the track, or most of it. So I'm not 100% sure on that specific right yet. Hopefully in the near future.
For the exception of the train (possibly) and the track I am done on the platform level of the station, so I am moving up into the transition between ground and underground. And then onto the station entrance. So a bunch more architectural features to be created and presented before I get to lighting/texturing. I can't wait, this is so much fun to do!

Thanks for the cheers and I'm glad you like it thus far.

Done a lot of work getting the Elevators built and installed. the two bottom elevators are done, the third is waiting on ground level construction. I will have some pics once they are placed in the station. Also done a bunch of work on the news stand as far as structure is concerned, those pictures will be up soon as well.
Ticket booth is next on the project list, that and the maintenance rooms. Once complete the mezzanine level will be done and onto the ground level! Success.
Lots of things to come and lots of progress to show!
