Medieval Building Part 4

Really small update.  I need to rethink my strategy/workflow for some of the pieces.  Anyways I switched out my basic brick texture with a more randomized one.  I included a very rough diffuse and normal map render.  I really want to add more geometry to it as it is currently only a plane but every time I attempt to add something, weird things happen.



Medieval Building Part 3

Just an update for tonight.  A render of the low poly pillar with normal map and some texture renders of it.  I'm not too happy with the wood textures right now.  I will rework it later but right now, I want to have more of a blocked in/base textured version of my project so I can figure out what works and what doesn't.

Medieval Building Part 2

Worked on a couple of tilling textures, changed some proportions, added and subtracted some modeling elements.

Medieval Building Part 1

I decided to start a new project.  Inspired by some photographs of medieval buildings with a bit of my own twist.  I haven't yet decided if I want this building to be apartments or stores or even an inn.  Here are some beginning progress images.

Viking Ax Model

Just felt like modeling and sculpting a viking ax.  First time using polypaint in zbrush, jsut to get a feel for the base colour I guess.






Character Concept

Something I've been working on and off for the last 3 days.  Just a simple "light armored" female warrior type character.  I wanted to add more accessories to this concept than I am accustomed to.
