The Pirates! In an adventure with scientists! Seafront scene

Swaggletooth · Dec 2016

Hey guys, this is the latest thing I'm working on and it's something I've wanted to do for a while: Blood Island from Aardman Animation's "The Pirates! In an adventure with scientists!" movie. It'll be a nice change of pace, and hopefully something I can get a comfy mood from instead of my usual grungy pieces.

This is where I'm at right now after a few hours work:

This is what I'm aiming to reproduce (or at least a segment of anyway):

So far so fun!

Slow but steady progress:

I need to figure out how to make the thatched roof look less plastic (either it needs a height map, or just nothing at all)

Continuing where I left off before:

Hand painting the signs was surprisingly time consuming; and I spent waaaaaaaaaay too much time doing textures in Substance Designer.

Time to start tightening this down and winding it up. Hopefully it'll just be 2 more months work...!
