I had some unexpected downtime today, so I filled out another span of my #blender3d #steampunk control panel. #design #aesthetics #blender3dart

  • For practice, I designed a few rocker switches that rock, with embedded lights that turn on and off, so that if I ever need a close-up of a button being pushed, or a warning light going on, it should be very easy to animate, either manually for a video clip, or through code in a 3D game engine.

    But my immediate goal is to enjoy myself and to practice my skills, by churning out background details.

  • What fun! Do your control panels blink and flash and beep? Blinking and flashing and beeping! Oh my!
