[ENV - WIP] 70's School Cooridor
polycounter lvl 5
Hey all!
It's been awhile since I've tackled a portfolio piece so I wanted to do it right and start a WIP thread on Polycount to hold myself to completing it.
Found the concept I wanted to tackle:
I really like the mood/lighting in this concept. I've actually had this image saved on my computer for awhile now as something I've wanted to recreate in 3D. As a first pass, I want to just capture the look established in this concept. Potentially if I have time I want to spiff it up and start telling a story in it. Maybe a horror scene, haven't decided yet.
I did a quick and dirty perspective traceover to help me block it out in 3D. The initial concept is very loose in some places so I figured it'd be helpful to get a more accurate breakdown of the scene.
Here's a modular breakdown of the scene. I ended up with this asset list:
Things marked with question marks are nice to haves or things to embellish the scene more.
My current plan is:
1st Stage:
Basic Blockout
Lighting/Post Process
Basic Material Blockout (Colors, Reflectance, Emissive)
Final Assets
Polish
2nd Stage:
Storytelling Concept
Additional Asset Blockout
Lighting/Post Process Tweaks
Finalize Additional Assets
Polish

I'm unsure what my final render will be in yet. I know it'll be in either Marmoset 3 or Unreal 4.

Quick blockout + base lighting pass. Using Marmoset atm for quick previews so I don't have to worry about baking.
