DESCRIPTION

The Astral Orrery is an intricately crafted 3D model that merges the elegance of celestial design with the precision of arcane machinery. A relic of forgotten scholars or divine engineers, this object represents the harmony between magic and science — a device built to track the movements of the stars and manipulate cosmic energy. Its brass framework, rotating gears, and glowing orb form the heart of a mystical mechanism that bridges the boundaries between knowledge and sorcery.

The central gemstone radiates with an ethereal amber glow, symbolizing the core of a living star or the condensed essence of magic. Surrounding it are interlocking rings and gears that rotate in perfect balance, capturing the essence of celestial mechanics. The Astral Orrery evokes a steampunk aesthetic with fantasy undertones, making it a stunning prop for fantasy games, alchemy laboratories, or magical workshops. Each part of its structure was designed to look both functional and mystical — as though it could awaken and start spinning at any moment, mapping the heavens or channeling forbidden energies.

Crafted with PBR materials, the model showcases reflective metal surfaces, emissive lighting on the gemstone core, and carefully weathered details that add depth and realism. It is perfectly optimized for cinematic renders, VR environments, and real-time engines like Unreal or Unity. Whether used as a magical artifact, power source, or decorative focal point, the Astral Orrery adds sophistication and lore to any environment it inhabits.

Features:

Highly detailed fantasy steampunk device with rotating gears and gem core

PBR materials with emissive glow and realistic metal reflections

Optimized topology suitable for games, cinematic rendering, and animation

Ideal for fantasy, sci-fi, or steampunk-themed projects

Compatible with Blender, Unreal Engine, Unity, Maya, and 3ds Max

Geometry
No N-gons
N-gons are polygons with five or more sides which might cause issues in certain processes like rendering or animation. Learn more
No faceted geometry
Faceted geometry uses flat surfaces without smoothing, which can look unrealistic on curves.
Learn more
Manifold geometry
Manifold geometry ensures all surfaces are properly connected, avoiding issues like edges shared by more than two faces.

Textures & material
PBR textures
PBR textures simulate how light interacts with materials, making the model look realistic under different lighting.
Required PBR textures:
- Base Color
- Roughness
- Metalness
- Normal
Learn more
No embed textures
Embedded textures are stored inside the model file, increasing its size and sometimes causing compatibility issues.
Learn more
Square textures
Texture aspect ratio is the width-to-height ratio of a texture. Expected texture aspect ratio: 1:1
Learn more
Power of 2 texture sizes
Textures with dimensions in power of two (e.g. 512x512px, 1024x1024px) are used to optimize performance and memory usage.

Assigned materials
Materials are applied to the 3D model to allow visualize a model's surface properties and appearance.
Learn more
UVs & naming
No UV overlaps
UVs overlap when multiple points on the 3D model's surface are mapped to the same point on the UV island causing texture stretching.
Learn more
UV unwrapped model
A UV unwrapped model means its 3D surface is flattened into 2D space, allowing textures to be applied accurately.
