Rapture Project - update Jan 2022

Helloooo.

Ok, I know you're here for illustrations not for some nerd-ass architectural fan project. Worry not! I have some pencil drawings I will upload pretty soon.

Back to my Rapture project... The map you see here shows the blocks of the city, each color representing a different elevation (10 meters increments). 

I started working on Hepheaustus, and after doing a lot of research on hydrothermal vents, thermal power generation, 1940s power plants, and industrial art deco, I made startling discovery. You won't believe this -- but -- Hepheastus as seen in Bioshock was not designed with realism in mind. *Surprised face*. What I mean is, with all the other levels in Bioshock I can look for real-life equivalents and work from that. In the case of Hephaestus core, I couldn't find any piece of machinery that looks remotely like what you see in there. And that is really annoying to my obsessive little mind.

I will probably take a long break from this project.
