The Introspector (WIP) (Patreon)
Content
I've had a play with re-creating The Introspector from Deathloop this morning. It'll be nice to see if I can do this for real, with Substance materials and those creepy eye blink animations. This was just a layout, but it taught me valuable lessons that I'll implement should I make a more elaborate version of this set.
I've started by modelling the TV screen and experimented with a holding frame of sorts, before abandoning the idea and leaving them unrealistically magic-attached to the arches. The arch was made from a solidified circle, to which I've parented multiple copies of the TV screen. I imagined a smallish room for the exhibition, which needed to be much larger that I had anticipated (10x20m in this layout).
I've duplicated the arch several times until I came up with 7 copies along a corridor of sorts, and one off to the side. I had a 1.8m cylinder in the scene for scale while I was modelling, and then replaced it with a Genesis 9 Toon figure with pose. The hair and trousers needed a tad of adjusting for which I've used ZBrush. I'd like to add cables and other wall details, some brick work and animated textures next - but we'll see if that ever happens, you know what it's like.
I'm excited that a game like Deathloop can bring inspiration to my creative juices.
