I needed some old, rusty chemical tanks for an abandoned factory map. I thought I could be lazy to find it, but I didn’t, but I found the basis of the tank as an obj-file. Now I know I could have done it pretty easy myself though.
So, we start Cheetah3D and get to work. This is the model, I stripped away the tanks underneath it, but kept the hatch and the ladder.
Now I needed some texture, so I make something very simple in FilterForge, could have been done in anything else but I had FilterForge opened, this is what I thought those tanks looked like when they were new.
Now, using one of my favorite filters that I haven’t been using much before, Derelict by Carl, a wonderful filter.
A diffuse map, see the gorgeous rust.
And a bump map.
Now, I apply those in Cheetah3D. I also use the old radiator texture for the hatch and the ladder.
Tank one
And a second tank, just changed the UV-mapping a little.
Looks pretty old and abandoned to me.
