Description This is Tony Stark's Arc Reactor from the movie Iron Man. I did all of this from scratch in Blender.

It took me about 2 full days to do it and over 2 hours to render.

UPDATE:
I have cleaned up the model A lot and now it has minimal N-gons and Triangles. I also ran a render at a better view.

I also uploaded it on Sketchfab: sketchfab.com/show/c140752abd0…


UPDATE 2: I fixed the lighting so it looks a lot better now


Rendered in Cycles at 200 Samples.

how did you get those cool little coil things?

The orange ones? I used an array modifier (which duplicates them in one direction) and the wires connecting them our curve objects.

Yeah, that's how I did it. They aren't actually wrapped they are lots of little coils.

I guess the method I used could work. But it would give you a LOT of polygons.


You could ask this guy how he did it:Β abdelrahman.deviantart.com/art…


A bump or normal map would probably work best.

Thanks, this really helps, is this movie accurate or just how you think it looks?

RegusMartin In reply to alex-553 [2013-07-25 16:04:17 +0000 UTC]

No Problem! The front part is really accurate, the back part is less accurate because of the lack of reference images.
