Recommission (2D)

I worked in the power industry for 7 years, 4 years as a substation (SS) engineer in an EHV Substation (500 kilovolts!). I wanted to construct that SS from memory and create a concept in the vein of The Last of Us. Playing through it the second time, I noticed that the power stations often seen were of Power Plants - the generation side - and no transmission SS. Though it's understandable, a transmission SS is quite boring compared to a power plant with all the generators!

My goal was to make (and destroy!) the SS look more interesting and alive (with foliage, of course). I only used 3D to block out the major shapes and went all in photobashing. I would later create the whole SS, props and all.
