This term we were challenged to model a steam engine that would fit into a given footage. This week I gathered some references and started to model my engine.
This two poctures will be used as my main reference, but I also wanted to add some pipes with a different look, so I picked an extra reference to use.
I separated the model in parts and started my job.
I realised I had some problems with the mesh built. The major problems is ther marks left by some edge loops, that restricts the model of having a smooth look.
After talking to my tutor, we managed to move the place of some of the edge loops, and break the mesh into separate pieces as shown in the second picture.
