I am happy to share today couple of the controllers I helped designed which was included in the Official Microsoft Xbox Summer Collection lineup.
These are 3D renders, models created in SolidWorks and Keyshot as the render engine. The white controller, the PDP Frosted Diamond, was particularly hard to get right as the material is very difficult to replicate in the 3D space. With a lot of experimenting between Joey and I, we finally got a look that we were satisfied with.
Here is another angle used for Amazon A+ content, which really shows off the dynamic material of the controller. There are micro laser etched grooves in different directions to give off the different lighting shades with a metallic opalescent surface material which gives it that oil slick rainbow colored sheen.
The other controller Australian Opal, was not as hard, but still took a bit of work cause it was a blend of metallic paints, but still had a matte like texture.
I am pretty happy with the final results and it appears Microsoft liked them as well to be included in their official line up.
