Hehe...just wanted to say I am glad you joined the noob category :) Making us "norms" feel nervous.

I love how it already has an eerie feel.

here where im at tonight. ive started to texture the walland the floor so i can see my if my shadows are looking right .also added the convict shadow and lights in the circuit box inside the amp meters. added the phone light and door light.........i will be modelling the rest of the smaller part of the chair tommorrow and hopefully finish that part.then move to the head electrodes and whatnot.lemme know what you guys think any crits welcome.

looking good m8.

i only find that bump on the stones a bit weird ( the red selected parts ) the rest of the bump looks good. only why does the lower part of the bricks have grey lines ( the concrete that hold the stones together ), and the upper part not?

is it because of the lightning? i would like to see al of them with the grey lines in them.


the rest is looking real good so far!


PS. propably you don't understand anything of this text. So sorry for that, i couldn't find a better way to write it. i hope you will understand it though!!

thanks bullet. i was making the texture very late last night and didnt feel like fixing it but i believe i might have now good eye man .what do you guys think about the floor texture im making ? are the caution lines too distracting and take away from the moped blood stain's? im in a fluster over this i cant decide any advice ?:headbang:

here is one without the caution lines i believe im also going to change the concrete geometry so the it a solid slab so there is a good defining line between the tile and the concrete.

here with the geometry changed around the chair. i am going to be working hard on the floor texture tonight what is on it right now is just the basic feel of the texture.and just to let you guys know this aint been easy.this is my first attempt at using UV mapping and i like it but i have no clue what im doing lol:headbang:

Wow equinox, i saw this thread when it was just the biggining and now i come back and... WOW. U've done a great job. Lots of small detail to make a great image. Very nice. Im going to have to work ALOT harder on my scene if i want to match this. :headbang:
I reccon the bump on the bricks is a bit too much. Other than that man, I think u're on the right track.

Tiago2 22-07-2005 11:17 PM

I also think the picture with the caution lines looks better than with out them.

ok i think ive got my floor done with bloody footprints an all i havent made the bump yet but the modeling on the chair is done :attn: i added the rest of the wires to the hat and added the supprt bars .i decided to go with the caution signs but i made the more worn looking which i think helped out.lemme know what ya think and any advice is more than welcome .

bullet_evader 23-07-2005 10:32 AM

i like it, i do have an advice for you.

Maybe have the camera not exactly in front of the chair, but move it a bit more to the left or right, but still have the chair in the center of the image. Also rotate the camera on the B axis a bit would look nice i think

well anyhow it's just a suggestion. just see what you are going to do with it. I'm not sure if it looks that great though. but i think it will look nice.

Also, dim the lights in the rest of the scene somewhat to give it more of an eerie feel. Just leaving the main lamp above the chair...

iamsthitha 23-07-2005 05:08 PM

Very nice!
So are you gonna put a guy in there or what?

equinox 23-07-2005 06:31 PM

nope no guy in the hotseat but the next lucky winner will be in the doorway casting his shadow on the floor. second post has the concept drawing.

equinox 23-07-2005 06:33 PM

yeah thanks mark i was thinking it would be a bit creepier looking if i kept it darker .thanks for the help man ill work on that today.:beer: as for the camera positioning i think if i move it it will ruin the effect im going for.i want the onlooker to feel as if it is there own shadow they are casting, as if it was me or you in the doorway fixin to fry if you stare at the chair in the last image you will feel that way lol its wierd.
