AN/PSQ-18A
AN/PSQ-18A
In 2009, the Scope Project began, at Lockheed Martin: Virtual World Labs. I modeled and textured 6 scopes for a project to be used in the VBS2 engine.
The Design
These are real scopes, we used many reference images that we got from a data capture photoshoot. The AN/PSQ-18A is a grenade launcher day/night sight mount. The engine allowed us to use multiple map types including diffuse, normal, and specular. I baked the normal and ambient occlusion detail from a high poly model to the low poly, then adding more normal map detail from CrazyBump after starting the texture.
