Having finished the model that I’ d be submitting, I decided that I would continue on, and try to create the version that I imagined at the start of the project, hoping to teach myself a little bit more about mapping and about UE4.

      I managed to get the centrifuge pieces to spin in UE4 using blueprints, and the lighting effects come from attaching ‘sparks’ to the ends of the model and increasing their size so that when they spin the create a spinning circle of energy.
