3D Animation Project

A posting in a while. I have been working on a 3D project for my computer animation class(for quite a long time:/) and we were supposed to build a interior of a place that exist in real life. After a long research I found some appealing photographs of train stations, and decided to go for Barcelona Sants railway station.

This was what I had for my 6th week of class. At the beginning of this project, I was going for the mood in World War 2 era, so I simply put the those awesome armored trains. Every object was pretty much in place and I had some good comments from people, but everyone hated the trains there. The biggest problem was that no one could really tell that those were actually trains, not tanks. I agreed that the these trains does not fit with the environment, in terms of design and mood.

So, I managed to make another type of train, and I liked this one much better than the previous one.

Final render

After a few break downs during rendering process (probably the most disastrous part of this whole project:/), I managed to finish the scene, and I am quite happy with how it turned out. It sucks that you hardly see any details on the architectures in the final image when I spent so much time getting them right. Still, my professor wanted my scene to be hung at the student show, so it's good that it payed off all my hard work.
