So- this is admittedly a little thing, and I wasn't so sure about this bit when I first modeled it, but I've ended up using it in every scene everywhere in the past few months, and now we're basically in love, so I wanted to share.You need a walkway? Railing? Rooftop bit? Robot part? Vending machine back? Air conditioner support? Fire Escape? Garbage? Sign frame? Overbuilt doorway awning? Industrial Greeble's got your back. It also has great copy-pastability (you can have it in your scene a lot before you start to notice.) I usually end up deleting random bits off it (or pasting bits around) to have it do whatever I need. Look I feel like I'm pitching this bit really hard, but it's just *stares at it in silence for an unexpected amount of time* really important to me.It's based on a picture I took down in the Tacoma harbor. I gotta do another texture shoot some time soon, here.

It's obviously there on the end of the cement thing he's sitting on, but it's also every pointy thing in the background. 

It's in this shot like a hundred times, haha- it's basically every little random metal thing. 

Few times in this one! Not as many times as it should be, actually.

Hey! Is this still a thing? I can't seem to download it :( Thanks! EDIT- Figured it out, Windows is blocking it "Insecure Download". I had to cut and paste the link into a browser window and then I was able to access it. Thanks!

Really been getting inspo from dynamo recently

Dude, awesome :) I used one of your vending machines this morning, just re-branded it, was super helpful!

Blake Rizzo

Love is Love. Embrace the love!! ❤️❤️

Awesome stuff man! Can't wait to throw this into my scenes. Any chance we could get those super cool laterns in the last scene?

Da5id

I'm so enamored with your image modeling technique, but unless I'm following you step by step I rarely get the quality of results you do. Guess I just need more practice, but please, please keep this stuff coming!

Chromfell

Actually saving my life with this right now, or at least my sanity for the day :D

Mike L. Taylor

And now they will be in all of my scenes 100X MUAHAHAAHAHA!!! Any chance you have a jet powered flying trash truck laying around I can use in my movie too?

Strobez

Thanks so much! Looking forward to it :D

Fitzy182

We shall worship Industrial Greeble always! speak of its power from dystopian to noir, thank you!

IndyStry

The last render so painterly! Stunning!

IanHubert

Are you actually making a movie with a jet powered flying trash truck!? Because that sounds awesome!!

Mike L. Taylor

100% though it may end up being just a dumpster with some jet engines kitbashed onto the sides if I can’t get the trash truck to look dope enough. ;)

That's one handsome greeble. I still don't understand how those shots (especially the bottom picture and the one you posted before of the "waterworks") can look so painterly. It's like a hand-painted background. Is this all achieved in After Effects with Filmconvert? Either way, it's very well done. The waterworks picture is currently my desktop background...

Kryat Lore

Ian, you constantly amaze me with how much stuff you get done with so little. You are a true inspiration, man!

shonal bose

how do you block a scene with 3d kitbashing is another tuts in itself....so much to learn from you ian ...

Bruno Galuzzi Corsini

Its amazing how much usability you can get out of something like a Greeble, first time I hear this word actually lol. It speaks volumes to what is possible if you look at things from different POVs!

Tom Smith

So rather than more cowbell, you like to have more Greebles?

sofia

these images are GORGEOUS

Hey Ian, I've a quick question, when you're editing UVs for a set of faces, and you're dragging them around on the UV texture map, is there a way to turn off the selection in the 3D view-- so you can actually see what's going on? Or do you just have to deselect, look and select again?

Zeke Faust

Simply disable viewport overlays. You can even assign it to a shortcut to quickly turn on and off

Mario Taylor

That is a badass-looking server rack!

HOT damn that's fantastic. And Elon Musk Travels to Mars is an absolute masterpiece.

Thanks brother. I've subscribed to a few patreons in the past but yours is by far the most fun and value for money
