For a map I’m working on, I need a small ventilation tower, is tower the right word? Anyway, something that sits on the ground enabling air to move down to the underground tunnels. I’ve decided to give Carrara 8 a real go today, and make an object using it from scratch.<\/p>\n

So, we start Carrara 8<\/a> and go to work. We create two boxes for this, as you can see, I played with some of the built in textures here.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now, we crate some real textures using FilterForge<\/a>. First a concrete texture using my painted on concrete, without any paintings. Here is the texture map.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And here is the Normal Map (Direct-X style).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now, we need a a texture for the tower, and I found this great filter by Angelboli, here is the texture map.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And the Normal map.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After applying the textures, we create a cube, where we move the corners of the top polygons inwards, to make it like a pyramid.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We need a texture for that roof, and what is better that some galvanized metal? Also made by a FilterForge Filter.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And here it is, rendered with a little angle so some details can be seen. If you wonder what that black square on the top is, I won’t say until I’ve played the adventure.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And here it is on the map. The map is made in Dundjinni<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

OK, not really rocket science, but something new came out of it, and I did make something in Carrara 8, which was my goal for today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
