Making a 3D model of the monorail

 To help me out with the rendering process, and also not have to worry about getting the perspective right I have decided to make a 3d model of my monorail. I chose 3ds Mx to do it, because my design had very specific angular shapes, but also some curved ones, and Max is the best software to do that in.

The process of getting the 3d model was not that hard, and it gave me the opportunity to refine my design and also figure out what the back of the monorail looked like. I have decided to make this monorail a cargo one, transporting supplies from one shelter to another. The bottom floor is meant for storage and the top one for a limited amount of people. The entrances are going to be placed in the back, the departure stations being equipped with moveable bridges that are put down over the rail so that people could reach them. 

I have also decided to make the rail stand on high pillars,  for safety reasons. That way, the monorail would be protected from the terrestrial creatures and the snow that accumulates on the ground. For the flying ones, it is equipped with a huge light beamer on top and also some smaller ones on the side.

Now that I have this base I can finally start photobashing.
