Antique Gramophone Early 20th Century 3D model

What is the product I am selling

This digital model takes a combination of various features from a range of gramophones over the years, without concentrating on a specific model or style. This model is my own with my own style.

Why did I do this model

While I enjoy modeling new, sleek and shining modern objects, but I believe they can look boring to look at, so modeling something antique brings on fun challenges and can look more stylish, and what is more antique and stylish then the popular gramophone.

Viewing CGtrader, gramophones are very popular, and I understand that, because having them in a home, means a music lover or someone who loves style. So what makes mine different? I believe the big difference is I wanted the model to look modern and antique at the same time, with realistic looking materials. This opens the door to everyone, with people who love modern and/or classic styles, thus opening the door to more customers.

Benefits to you the customer

While this model is based on a variety of different gramophones, taking bits from modern and classic designs, this model is for everyone no matter whether you love the modern or classic look, all with great attention to detail, be that in the modeling or materials being used.

While anyone who is doing a specific project can use this gramophone, I strongly believe this model would suit any Architect/3D Architectural Visualiser or Game Designer who requires a unique piece of antique furniture for their living/lounge room. This gramophone can be placed in a modern living area, or one that is of the past. Whatever the case may be, this model will be perfect to you, if you wish to show that the room is full of music by a musical lover.

As someone who understands the need to make sure these 3D models are as close as possible to the real thing, I spend many hours making sure that this model is ideal for you as the customer. To ensure this is possible, I examine as many reference images as possible trying to match them to the real thing, be that the model itself or the materials used.

As part of these files, I have included two versions, one with materials baked, the others more interchangeable (i.e. procedural). .

While this model is not rigged, it does have movable parts, so you as the client can decide what is best for you in the desired environmental room.

Another benefit is that the model does have some moving parts, such as

The needle arm and base can be rotated to your desired position (see video?). The side hand crank can also rotate

How the file works

Within the downloadable zip files, I have included two different blender files. One of these files (v01_Antique_Gramophone) all the textures/materials use procedural nodes. For those who are unaware, this means you will be able to modify none, some or all of the materials provided, to suit your own preferred taste/style or your specific project. This file is one that would suit the experienced Blender user or one that would like to try and see how procedural material nodes work.

However not everyone wants to worry about changing the textures, all they want is to upload and place in their projects, especially if you are new to 3D or Blender. So for this reason, I have included a file (Final_Procedural_Texturing_Gramophone) which is just that, all the images included and linked in their respectable places, meaning you don't have to do anything. Just upload and place in your Blender project. These textures are flat .png images, baked in (multiple layers flattened as one) and placed in a separate asset/texture zip folder for easier linkage.

Also included in all of the zip files are texture images + bumps for necessary file images that are required for the project. These are the two main logos + the design of the record label. Without these, the specific areas will be pink.
