LoneGunman · 15th December 2007, 07:24

Hello all. Just a little project I'm working on at the moment...

Here is the basic set of keys I just finished.

Cheers

Nice start. What kind of keyboard? Synth, piano?

LoneGunman · 15th December 2007, 10:55

Hey Tony, thanks, man, it's gonna be a synth, here is a bit more...

Cheers

Cool, any particular make, or your own design?

LoneGunman · 15th December 2007, 11:35

Not any particular make at all, just modeling as my brain tells me to,

.

I did look for a reference for the keys (Yamaha models), cuz any mistakes there would be very noticeable, especially by the people who know how to play this kind of instrument, hehe.

Anyways, here is bit more...strangely enough I chose to put speakers on the side, weird, I know, but that's the way I like it

More to come tommorow, need to go to sleep now, it's almost 6 am here...

Cheers

Well, yes that does seem a bit strange, as the sound would be directed away from both the player and the listener

I'm not sure you have left enough room for the speaker magnets too. Must be a new super powerful, mini magnet speaker design

Look forward to seeing the next bit and how you do the sliders and pitch bend.

LoneGunman · 15th December 2007, 20:14

Well, it is a prototype, you know, anything is possible, hehe

Here is few captions from this morning session...

Cheers

LoneGunman · 16th December 2007, 06:08

Here we go again, finished modeling the display and a few dials...

Cheers

LoneGunman · 16th December 2007, 08:03

And again,

Few connectors in the back, I think I'm done with modeling now...

Cheers

Here is a quick clay render in Vue...

-ash- · 16th December 2007, 09:54

Looking good

LoneGunman · 16th December 2007, 10:52

Thanks, off to go to sleep now, will do some texturing tomorrow

Wim Scheenen · 16th December 2007, 12:05

looks nice! Wim

rickei · 16th December 2007, 14:27

That looks great LG
especially for not having a reference to work from. you've included lots of little details that I would not have thought of.

LoneGunman · 17th December 2007, 03:43

Thanks guys

Here is the render with some basic texturing done with UVmapper and PaintShopPro7...

Cheers

-ash- · 17th December 2007, 17:54

Nice!

I like the Nevercenter logo on the top

I think it could do with some labels on the buttons though.

Aunty Betty · 18th December 2007, 21:41

All I can do is give you a model itself, not a real thing, HERE is the OBJ version of it (base cage)
