New Project - Replicating Stranger Things 2 Scene
Hi guys! So the other day, I was watching Stranger Things 2 (again) and I really like one scene. It might seem like an odd choice of a scene to fall in love with, but it is this simple scene of a radio in the hut.
So first of all, I want to do the radio as a separate asset with everything, including the back piece. I would like this to be a smaller piece of work that I will work on into detail. It will be a nice modelling and texturing excercise. When I am happy with the radio, I will continue modelling the scene (including the TV), but this will be more efficient depending on what can be seen and what cannot.
I have already started modelling the radio.
First I had to find out what kind of a radio this is. After some research, I found the name - Cobra 139 AM/SSB CB Radio.
I collected as much reference as possible, including screenshots from Netflix,
This is my progress so far. The front board is mostly done, just need some topological tweaking and three more holes fore the sliders.
The biggest issue so far were the circular holes. The small ones were very easy, just using a square, which works perfecty...so I thought, well why wouldn’t it work on the big ones either? Big mistake!
The shapes did not look great at all, not very circular. Zou can see above, that I simply put 8-sided circle and composed it into the geometry, works perfectly well again!
Thank you for reading, hoepfully will be back soon, with some more progress!
