19th Century Cash Register

I chose to make an early 20th century cash register to practice my hard surface skills and because I love the time period and its designs. I have a bachelor's degree in history and I wanted one of my portfolio pieces to capture my love for historical props and designs.

I made the cash register by going back and forth between Zbrush and Maya. My initial blocking was made in Maya and with the high-poly I made use of the boolean function in Zbrush for indentations into the mesh. The ornaments where done by print-screening portions of the model and making an alpha for that specific position in Photoshop. I later used said alpha to project it onto the high-poly in Zbrush. Low-poly and UV's were done in Maya and the scene was made and rendered in Marmoset Toolbag 4. The background scene is built with props form Quixel Megascans. The Volcanic Pistol laying on the counter-top is a prop I made for another project that I thought was fun to reuse here.

The project was done during 4 weeks halftime.
