GAD301: Alien Abduction Facility - Specular Patterns in Textures

OVERVIEW

Thinking of ways to treat the visual transition from the "human" environment into the alien environment of the facility, I messed around with giving some interests to smooth metal textures.  I put a pattern onto the specular map of the "Transition Room", the first alien space experienced in the level.

RENDERS

The ramp going down into the Transition Room

 Render showing ceiling details - Ramp to the Transition Room.

 Render showing floor details - Ramp to the Transition Room (no door yet).

Specular pattern shown on the floor of the Transition Room.

The surfaces of the Transition Room have a specular pattern on it that is seen from certain angles.  Watch it in action in Maya.
