Mariner X Probe Model

A model I developed and textured for the planetarium show "Signs of Life". The shots featuring this model were ultimately cut from the show so this one never made it to the dome. But it was a cool model and really fun to work on. I modeled in Maya with the wrinkled bits of the foil created in ZBrush. i textured it in Substance Painter. Mariner X made its voyage to Venus and Mercury in 1974. More info here: https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/missions/mariner-10/in-depth/
