[WIP] Pirate ship cannon 3D

sargisstg

Hello. My name is Sargis. I'm a 3D artist with 3 years experience in 3D industry.

I've never posted works or progress in forums so this is my first attempt of sharing progress in forum. I think it will be good to listen from experienced and not only some advices and critiques while working on personal project. 

For a long period I had no time to start personal project. I understood in order to improve skills you need to do something new or something more difficult. So I have decided to create sailing ship after watching <<Pirates of Caribbean>> series.

Now I'm working only on cannons. After finishing it I will start process of modeling ship. Here is two WIP renders (Rendered with V-Ray)

Modeling done in 3Ds max and ZBrush for sculpting woods.

Now I'm planning to create midpoly mesh for baking maps and then start texturing in Substance Painter.

By the way I'm recording all process, so after finishing this I will post on Youtube.

I would be happy to see any advices. Let's discuss.

I'm also want to improve my English   

Thanks for attention

Nice model and details! The rope on the floor could need some work. It's too uniform!
Keep going!

Here is an update that I want to share. I made low poly (mid poly) version of my cannon and baked in Substance Painter. About rope I'm planning to make low poly version with displacement map later.

 Thanks for comments

Now I'm trying to acheive metal material.
What do you think is it looks good ?

Thanks for comment.

I've added some micro scratches and some more little dirt. As well wood material . I think it is done on 90%. But I think I must add something more. Any ideas ? What I can add?

I've added some ornaments to refine final object.

Are you going to add the rope back in? It was a nice touch.

Yes. I'm planning to make low poly rope with displacement map. I will use that rope not only on cannon but also on ship. In this week I should find time to work on it.

Hey Sargis! Your model looks pretty good! I would add some small wood color variation, now its a bit flat. Also when you look at your model from +/- perpendicular angle you'll see that roughness works like one big flat mirror(especially on wood), maybe try to add some roughness level variations to it. It will add some depth and model will look more dity/ interesting. I made some small paintovers. Hope I helped  


those are pretty simple examples from photoshop, I believe you can make something way more better in Painter
Model looks pretty good anyway Hope it makes sense and I helped a bit

Thank you for suggestions. I was have some time to update it and here is another marmoset renders. I done re-texturing and I think this new one is better. Next step I will add pirate flag at the wheel, ropes and balls. Thanks for attention again.

Really nice work.
I'm not that sure with the wood, it looks a little bit to shiny from some angles, maybe some roughness variations would help here.

Thank for comment. I've added some dirt roughness layers to it but I don't know what was the problem I think it's from environment lighting. I'm planning to make pirate ship also and I will try to achieve wood more realistic for that time. Thank you again.
