Vintage Video Capsule

Found this charming Video Capsule online, and figured it would be an interesting project for my last portfolio project at TGA!
"Video capsule (1978) Swing back design reveals a hidden 7" TV screen, radio, and clock. Advertised as an "exciting direction of eye fidelity--it's the perfect portable that looks everything but TV!"

For this project,I wanted to focus on sub-d modeling in Maya, as well as wanted to challenge myself to texture an object where there possibly could be a great deal of roughness variation (dust cavity dirt, et.c) Also really wanted to see if I could get it close to the references.

You may notice the cord's not plugged and the screen's still on? I simply couldnt resist setting up a material in UE4 for the screen, to make the nostalgia go full circle.
It is entirely modeled in Maya, baked in Marmoset and textured using Substance painter. Scene and material set up in UE4.
