UE4 WIP - Cathedral

HughieDM

Its been a while since I last posted on here and so I figured while reworking an old portfolio piece I should create a WIP of it.
The original project: http://hughmccullom.com/Cathedral.html 

With this project I want to focus more on my use substance designer and work on my material creation

Design wise I made the cathedral much bigger or more in line with Saint Peters and plan on adding more story

So far I have rebuilt most of the major mesh pieces and recreated most of the major materials in sub stance designer

I would be sure to make variants on your substances so that you can add patches of different variations in the texturing or adding props to break up the repetition. Otherwise, you run the risk of making the tiling be too obvious - especially with materials that have high contrast colors.

Thanks for the feed back Cloudydays! Im definitely going to be adding alot more props to this version and I did add a bit of value change to the floors stones



Also worked on some quick designs for the ceiling structure and the window style / design

For the structure I'm leaning toward b and f

For the window I'm liking maybe d or g but im not sure yet

Just finished up the dome, windowed end piece and the arch structure

HughieDM

Added some window work and more detail to the dome

Adding some chandeliers next I will be working on some wall sconces, standing candle holders, and prayer candles

Update

1. added secondary ceiling structure to brake up the tiled ceilings a bit
2. added chains to the chandeliers and created a small blueprint to make them instances and editable lengths
3. added standing candle holders and sconces
4. added pews (not totally happy with them and probably will do  more detailed versions but there good place holders for now)

Next

1. Window glass and some vista
2. Doors for the main entry and some small side doors
3. the main object of worship in the center
4. statues
5. larger end point statues or story carvings
6. wall insets for statues
7. hanging tabards
8. guards
9. disciples
10. books and book shelve for worship literature 
11. prayer candles and kneeling worship props

CC always welcome!
