GAME : MAYA : WATCH TOWER

Today I made a simple Watch tower that will be duplicated and used in our game as a reference for the end point of the game. flying between these two towers will signify entering the safe zone and will set the game to the end screen. I tried to model this as simply and "low cost" as possible whilst still looking good enough for our game.

WATCH TOWER MODEL.

This is the plain model of the tower, it is simple and obvious what it is so works as a model for our game. however for the game i needed to add some basic materials to it to make it ready to go straight into the game.

WATCH TOWER TURRET 2.

First I focused on the turret of the tower, I made three materials, A shiny steel looking material, a darker iron or carbon looking material and a golden material as our end goal is a golden city, I applied these to parts of the turret and was happy.

I applied these materials to the rest of the tower and this is the result. I am happy with this model as I produced it in a reasonable amount of time (1 and a half hours) and it has been done economical.
