More Development

i imported my model into esperient creator but some of the groupings in my model were wrong so i had to redo them in sketchup. I then had to import them into deep exploration because the textures were off. While in deep exploration i redid some of the lighting and textures and gave them more of a shine.

IDEAS

My original image was this whirlpool thingy with a lot of circles. From there i have transformed it into a multi leveled platforms. The platforms are supported by robotic like columns. I have tried to make them simple but still look good. I have tried to make it as symmetrical as possible. To reach the different levels I have made a lift to allow people to travel up and down different platforms. I originally planned for the space to look metallic and futuristic, after the mid term review I decided to get rid of the metallic look but try and keep the futuristic look which i like.

Development bores me

I redid the textures and made them a bit more grimey. I've tried to keep the futuristic look by making some of the platforms trasnparent

Thoughts

After looking at everyone elses work I decided that my design was too metallic and resembled many of the other designs that were shown. The colours were all way to similar, they all had the same metallicy look.

I've decided to redo the textures on my 3D object, i don't want to lose the metallic, futury feel but i want to change it so it does not look similar to the other designs
