1st update after my first WIP post. It now has a little more thingys :P Many thnx 2 all people who helped me get that text graving into the walls! CZ

Oooooo, looking good. Damn, I gotta learn how to model properly.

this is just some little idea inspired by rochrs mindmachine project, nothing fancy about it. Just messed around a bit, trying to make it look like something religious. i'd realy like some more C&C, maybe some bugs you might notice, that i havent, or some suggestions. Everything is welcome. CZ

well, if I could be so bold and make a sugestion..... Try to ceep the engraved txt to the flat surfaces (the red marks) and off of the relief in the walls. It will, I think, look much better. It will be more work but I think it will pay of. You may already have thought about this :o)

no acutaly i havent, thnx for the suggestion. Now i see your right :D i will work it out! thnx man! CZ

I agree about the text, and also another small (very small) critique: the corners of the rectangles engraved into the wall look a bit odd. You can get rounded corners, instead of that strange x-intersection, by shortening the length of each of the cylinders by the width of the cylinders, then placing a sphere that's the same as the width of the cylinders in x, y, and z at each of the corners. Does that make sense? Other than that I think it looks really cool, I can't wait to see it textured! How big is this thing, anyway? There's a thing on the wall that looks like a handle, but it looks like there's a hand railing around the machine.

thnx for that info, i've just downloaded some cool new primitives, with round edges, etc. I think i;ll use those. I also will add more pipes and wires to the walls, to make it look more sci-fi. The file currently holds 3987 Objects, and 290306 polygons. Image above is a look at the wireframe. I know it looks realy messy, but i can find the things i need :P CZ

btw, you are right about the handrail. I thought it would be a nice addition..Dont you think?
