Space Capsule Cockpit is a cinematic 3D environment. This project embodies my passion for sci-fi worldbuilding, storytelling through design, and the technical artistry that brings immersive digital spaces to life.

The environment is set inside a compact spacecraft cockpit, carefully crafted to feel authentic, functional, and well-worn—reflecting years of interstellar travel. Every detail, from the control panels and navigation systems to the wiring, seating, and emergency gear, was thoughtfully designed to convey a sense of history and realism. My goal was to create a scene that not only looks believable but also tells the story of a vessel shaped by its journey through space.

Drawing inspiration from real-world aerospace engineering and iconic sci-fi films, I aimed to merge grounded realism with cinematic aesthetics. I handled every aspect of production: modeling in Maya, sculpting details in ZBrush, texturing in Substance Painter, lighting and rendering in Unreal Engine, and compositing in Nuke. Particular attention was given to surface detail, material aging, and the mood conveyed through lighting.

The final piece invites the viewer into a space filled with narrative potential—encouraging the imagination to explore the unseen stories behind every switch, screen, and seat.
