Heimsonne

Hard-Surface Model

The Heimsonne is a device designed for short-term irradiation of the body/face to have a positive effect on the user’s health. This object was manufactured in East Germany in 1979, although similar devices had already been sold in the early 1970s.

Technical Drawings

Before starting to model the asset, I made technical drawings in Adobe Illustrator to have a clear idea of the size of every single detail.

Low-Poly Model

To improve the model’s efficiency, I have reduced the number of polygons as much as possible.

High-Poly Model

Starting from a base mesh, I created a high-poly model. Throughout the process, it became clear that I could save a lot of time and effort by using floating geometry.

Baking & Texturing

In Substance Painter, I was able to bake the details of my high-poly model into the low-poly one. After that, I textured the asset and rendered a couple of beauty shots.
