Dead Space Plasma Cutter

3D Model

This is my 3D model of the Plasma Cutter from the original Dead Space, also known as the “Refurbished Plasma Cutter” from Dead Space 2. This is without a doubt one of the most difficult models I have made but I really enjoyed the process. The most difficult part of this project was working out how the animation would work, from the perspective of the game you can only see the front of the weapon so it was very tricky to work out how the different parts went into place. I took some screenshots from the game and there were a few videos online I could reference. My goal was to get it as accurate to the Plasma Cutter in the game as possible and I think I achieved that. Unfortunately I couldn’t get the lasers working correctly in sketchfab, they stayed active at all times instead of activating only when in “aim” mode. If you want to see the lasers in action check out my portfolio which is linked in my profile. The Plasma Cutter Animation is under the 3D Models page.
