Love it! Does this giant elevator have another smaller, human-sized elevator inside?

Completed this a while ago, but I finally have the time to officially post my project in my portfolio. Very happy to have taken part of the CGMA vegetation course and increase my knowledge in foliage creation! #gameart #3dart

misc screenshots from various texture tests and experiments in Quake

a concrete facade wall, with waffle slab structures and occasional square holes

a gothic ceiling with books on the walls and ornate tracery in the vaulted segments. there are lilac colored lamps hanging from the walls and celling

a grey stone castle overgrown in moss and vines, with a metal door in the shade

an otherworldly scene looking into the top of a black hole with a glowing orange accretion disc. various rock islands, and a massive stone sword, hover millions of miles above it, presumably in orbit

Thank you! That squiggly cube thing is the CPU of the workstation. It's supposed to have an alien/super advanced vibe. The idea is that this workstation can design and fabricate any nanobot/protein you'd want. So it needs lots computing power, just like with protein folding. So sci-fi nonsense 😆

Thank you! Yeah I designed it from scratch, with lots of inspiration from reference of course. I should draw more so I'm not fighting with vertices and throwing stuff out so much 😅. Here's the first sketch I did, it's so rough (pls don't look at for too long 😳)

Appreciate it!! 😭 It's hard to tell sometimes if it's any good after it's been so long

Owltruism🌱 @bjornprins.bsky.social · 23d

Here's a reminder of what it looks like with more normal colours. Though once I start texturing I'll try to make it less grey.

Screenshot of a detailed retro-futuristic 3D workstation in Blender. The scene shows a curved desk surrounded by monitors, a leather office chair, and a variety of stylized props like books, tubes, a mug, and canisters. The modeling is clean with stylized details and placeholder green screen shaders on the monitors. The image serves as a progress update on a larger personal project.

Back view of a retro-futuristic 3D workstation in Blender. The image shows a dense arrangement of pipes, cables, vents, and mechanical components, including a large red valve on one of the large pipes and flexible hoses. The setup includes power conduits, tubes for nanoliquid, and screen for monitoring and system calibration. The distinct purple brain cube PC and rolled-up papers from the front are also visible from this angle.

UVs kinda done. Just need to decide if I'm gonna do UDIMs or not. Burned out on everything in life though. Hopefully I can finish this project at some point

Screenshot from Blender showing a color-coded 3D model of a retro-futuristic workstation. The main desk area is surrounded by monitors, cables, and modular sci-fi equipment. To the right, several props are neatly laid out, ready for baking. Each color represents a texture set. The scene is shown in solid shading/matcap mode with no lighting.

I don't have the proper words to say more than this now but

I was just laid off. My role at Giant Squid is being eliminated.

If your studio is looking for an environment artist, please let me know ASAP. I have 5+ years of experience.

thank you

I always use alt+middle click drag in Blender to snap to the orthographic views. I know this view clicking gizmo is popular among Blender users, but I've never used it.
