Challenge #6 - Nhall - Master Situation Control Chair

Right, so I'm not really sure what I'm doing, as I'm using open-source software (Art of Illusion) because I can't make heads or tails of blender. Anyway, here's my progress before knocking off for the evening, I plan on there being screens and controls, etc protruding from the chair, with much exposed. sort of hard to explain my concept for this.... you'll see as it develops.

Cheers,
Nick

Interesting start.

Do you have a plan for what the pipes and hoses do?

This looks like a really cool start. Did you do any sketches before you started modelling? If so please post them here as a sketch is a requirement for this challenge

Thanks, everyone!

As far as the pipes and wires go, I was planning on using them for power/data transfer, perhaps a mixed beverage dispenser. Lol. actually I put them there to make it look more cobbled together.

And I did some sketches, and I'll post them as soon as I convert them to a digital format, rather than that crappy analog-napkin I used.

So here's some updates. I decided to get rid of that crappy armrest monitor. Who wants a monitor there where their drink should be, after all? So I made some overhead situation monitors that I think are going to turn out great.

Cheers,
Nick

More! Should I honestly put in the frosty beverage dispenser? It wasn't in my original concept in napkin-o-vision, but I think it could be an interesting. Kinda a captain's chair a-la Hitchhiker's Guide, eh?

I'll think about it. Armrest controls are next.

Cheers,
Nick
