Space Station Challenge 2021 WIP – Nemesis

@duerer Thank you dear Ingmar. 😊 🙏 To answer your 1st question, I used a bunch of references online viewed from almost every angle possible to get the best results.

Obviously it won’t appear as realistic to what is displayed on reference because this after all is a low poly challenge.

I took on this challenge because I’ve never modeled anything low poly. Thought this would be a great opportunity to test my ability. 😊 

To answer your 2nd question, the model currently consists of 2 separate objects…

– Body and Wings.

– Tail and Engine. 

The file size is currently below 2MB. I am used to file sizes of 200MB and beyond because of my love for detailed designs.

Take care of yourself dearest Ingmar. 😊 

Hi,

I created a test animation with some basic shading and compositing. My goal is to hopefully create a low poly cinematic feel. I haven’t included a top view animation as I still need to create a terrain. The sky texture is most probably my biggest blessing. Modeling on the shuttle is almost done. Boosters and exterior tank are still a WIP. Can’t wait to add a particle system for smoke and fire. I might not meet the deadline; however, I will try my utmost.

@euv Thank you for your kind feedback Vue. 😊 🙏 Hope that you are participating too. Would love to see your wonderful work.
