Type XXIII Control Room ?

[Red Ocktober]

the interior of my Type XXIII submarine is coming together in the modeller...

seeing as i could not find any photos of the interior of a Type XXIII, it is purely conjectural, and strongly influenced on pictures of the control room of the Type XXI, which are a lot easier to find...

suggestions and critiques welcome...

thx

ok... seeing as it's a lil slow around the docks... here's something to look at...

lightmapping tests on untextured type 23 interior model...

what the above stuff looks like when lit and shadowed badly ;D


starting from the back end and looking forward,

the engine room... still needs a lil more detailing...

the aft end of the control room...

moving forward in the control room

to where the sub is actuall controlled... the zentralle it's called ? ?

Looking quite nice to me ... even if its allegedly lit/shadowed in the wrong way.

Well done, Red.:smile:

Even the first sketch has an atmospheric quality and the others build on that.

thx guys... more to come... in the middle of some real world commitments which are taking precedence right now, but will resume work on this soon and try to get at least a demo out in the not too distant future... then the game...

since it's been kinda quiet in the lobby, here's a few of the latest Type XXIII shots as the final model gets fitted out...

if you look back at the first shots of this model, you can see how far it's come since its inception... correct door (hatch) shapes... a lil texturing and some better lighting...

it's getting there...
