Tech Floor 11by *soulburn3d

Digital Art / Mixed Media / Sci-Fi

One of a number of starship hull test images. I made these images to explore variations in greebling and hull plate shapes and configurations. The tests are a little less practical and a little more abstract, but they have been really helpful, and should be a great source of inspiration and practical experience the next time I decide to make a full fledged 3d model of a starship, space station or even a mechanized planet. Parts were modeled in 3dsmax, rendered with brazil, some was painted in photoshop, and many patterns were inspired and produced by Darktree, Bercon Noise and Filterforge procedural patterns.

This piece is sort of a companion piece to Tech Floor 8, other inspiration from the classic Star Wars Death Star Trench, and thanks to GrungeTV on Deviantart, who's also been experimenting with my panels technique, I used your "Quadanium Steel" image as inspiration as well.

I want all my textures to be this... deep. Procedural generation would be a boon, too. Great work.

Glad you dig the tech floors. Procedural generation would be cool, but to get the right balance seems to take a lot of manual edits after the fact. Which is fine, they're a lot of fun to do and tweak.
