Star Wars - Redemption | Work in Progress #8

Work In Progress / 16 February 2018
Hi everyone ! I've been up to several tweaks and new stuff for our beloved Geonosis Environment !

So here is a "spire" asset used to mostly characterize the mood and the particularly primitive but organized architecture of the planet !


I used a base cylinder in ZBrush then added a circle of window I sculpted before, and used them as insert meshes for faster positioning. All these windows are also useful for detailing the environment separately to the spire so I decided to make them as separated models as well


Then to use simple objects to make a cool ground and environment around you while being still stylized I made these two rocks ( still using ZBrush + 3DCoat ^^ )



I'm not a huge fan of the following one, it looks too clean regarding its shape, the more we grind the more planar rock area should be small, to keep the planet's logic which is partially inspired by the monument valley I think.



In-game Geonosis Spire



And what I made in a few clics, just for fun it's not a definitive level. I wanted to see what's possible with the assets I made, if the direction I took was a worthy one =) I also tried to make an hologram shader, it's a fairly basic one at the moment but it do the job well ^^




I reworked the Venator's hangar in order to clean walls and detail the ceiling smarter, the forcefield was also a big issue as it doesn't have a big blue glowing piece around it, and it make it easier to find when you're in space approaching a stardestroyer now.  



Nebuleas =) A difficult thing to understand at the beginning, not as much detailed as I wanted ( see the second image over coruscant to have an idea of how low it looked before ^^" ). Now they are far better, issue was not only about the texture's detail but also the shader itself, I reworked it a little and added a map slots where you can add stars, here they are bigger to enhance the space deepness but you can put what you want ^^


And here is what the space looked like before new nebulaes, I should take a better screenshot for the next update ^^" Btw the planet won't be Coruscant but Geonosis ;)
