Description

Twitter: https://twitter.com/colorblindmess
Back in April 2016 I was about to join Ready at Dawn as Lead Ui Artist and I was in the middle of some Concept art for Doctor Strange, so I felt I need to learn more 3D, I’m not a 3D artist so I needed to practice a bit since it would help the Ui work in general at RAD. So I went to try making a device design that relied only on mechanical parts powered by vapor (steam), no sci-fi energy techy glowy lights, only natural light, optics and vapor! I went full steampunk on this inspired by Orrery, Astrolabes, Steampunk tech, Watch mechanisms and Tabletop games. Note that it's an Orrery / Astrolabe but not for our galaxy. I made everything in Modo and Illustrator. Visually Inspired by Steampunk, Old furniture, Watches, The Order 1886. My PC couldn’t render this, so now 10 months later and with a new PC, I was able to make some basic renders Hope you like it!

This is a really cool illustration, but it bugs me immensely that the degree measurements jump from 210 to 250, and then proceed to be off the same amount for the rest of the cycle.

Oh don't worry, it's wrong all 6 times that scale shows up in the illustration (that I can see)
