Elusive Finish?!

I think it is high time to post on polycount and see what they have to say about this particular piece.

Fleshing Out the House

Still going at it with this environment, still feel that I need to add more detail props and flush out the exterior section of this home. The to do list keeps on expanding!

Modern Home Progression

Thought I'd screen some caps of various sections of the home in transit to some completish state. The addition of the book atlas worked out better than expected and marked the first time I made one using a grid system.

The next atlas will be for plants and that'll be a challenge, I've barely created foliage but it'll help liven up the place.

Small part of the atlas.

It has been awhile since I posted but every day I've chipped away at the environment and finally am creating an atlas texture for the books that'll house various parts of the place.

Found a cool Cthulian font and some nice borders to create the spinal part of the books, still need to make the covers, backside, and what the open pages would look like. So far I have enjoyed creating this immensely and aim to put this amount of detail throughout.

Blocking Out the House

I've begun to detail out the several sections of the environment with minor props. Last night I had an epiphany on how to adjust the Box and Sphere Reflection Captures that had stumped me for awhile: did not know I could adjust the scale to fit within the parameters that I wanted.

I only baked preview lighting so there are notable shading errors in some of the screenshots. There are also reflections on the glass material that do not accurately portray what I desire so that is another task on the ever expanding list of things to do on this bad boy.

Steady Progress

UE4 Render

I am taking it a bit steady on this project by doing at least 3 tasks each day, if I feel up to it I do more than that to maintain a quality bar of some sort.

Decided to change the color of the walls to a whiter color but keeping the previous colors to the roof. There are more rooms to this house but will save those shots for later.

Recent Absence

The past two weeks I have taken a breather from the hard surface challenge and decided to create an environment of my own to pass the time. This'll be for a long while and slowly chipping away at it and adding details here and there each day. A daily goal is to model at least a couple of assets that I jot down in an ever expanding list of things to do.

The goal is to get this environment to a state that I feel is worthy of the skill set I have attained so far.
