WWE NXT Takeover: Dallas will take place on April 1st 2016 at the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center in Dallas, Texas. This is my mockup of what the event could look like on that day!

What's interesting about this venue is that it is a cirular auditorium. I have never modelled anything like this before, but with a couple of polygon techniques it's very easy to create a convincing round shape with the geometry being fairly jagged. All the angles of the corners are based around 20 degrees rotation and duplicated around the arena. To create a completely circular arena, it was best to create exactly a quarter of the arena and use the symmetry modifier to create the other half and then the final half. The only time this couldn't be achieved was with the big wall at the higher tier, as parts of that had to be cut out, but not cut out on the opposite side of the venue and the bottom tier was made without symmetry because of the awkward shape of it.The bottom tier was made from two splines and lathe Nurb object that was cut and edited to fit the venue.

Usually when I create these arena's, they have some kind of LED "ticker" around the upper tiers. I realised that this venue doesn't have that but WWE tend to like using graphics on those tickers. So I would wager to bet that they would either hang a LED board somewhere or use the overhead just as some Japaneese companies tend to do. For this model, I chose to hang them from the overhead as the arena is a bit small and cramped to just put an LED board somewhere.

This project, just as any others I have made, are made for non-profit and created as a hobby.
