Neon Skies – Week 3
|
Week 3 focused on creating a fast 3D sketch of the drop pod that the players will come down in. However, due to me having to travel away, we decided that it was better to start work on something that would take a longer time that I could work on independently for extended periods, as such we started work on the mining drones.
In the beginning we were going for a very robust style on the drones with 4 wings that converge on a center-body where the mining laser would be in the front. After a few attempted iterations however, it just didn’t get the feeling of the rest of the game, so we decided to go a new path.
The drone we decided to go for was one that was more fluid with wings hovering around it to give a sci-fi feeling. The above is the two first test iterations of textures for it. There is however a thought to possibly add something that looks more like an eye on the top. The texture will likely go through a few iterations, trying new things, keeping what we like and throwing away what we don’t like.  |
