Awesome! Thanks for sharing that! It's an approach I hadn't thought of before and I think the results look really great. Are you manually creating the variation by hand, or using some sort of noise/procedural approach?
In this case I did the variation by hand, but I think you could easily do this with a procedural noise deformer. Just be careful to make sure those gaps between stones aren't destroyed by that. Depending on your 3d-software you could probably mask some vertices to not be affected by any deformer.
Decided that I wanted to have one of those Lindblum air cabs flying around in the background of the scene. Here's the current progress. Mid-poly modeling is done, next step would be high and low poly + texturing.
This brings back so much nostalgia! can't wait to see this progress. Any chance of releasing the real-time scene when you finish, for ppl to interact with?
Congrats on having the perseverance to finish it! I've been following it since the beginning and I think it turned out nice. You may have dropped it a bit early, I mean you can polish it to death anyway with volumetrics and post FX but whatever man. Great work!

Thanks! I think I know what you mean, but yeah, I don't want to spend another year with it

Sure & thanks!
Haha, thanks! I'm quite happy with it, too. It's way too detailled for what I initially intended it to be, but I got carried away
I finally managed to finish this project almost exactly one year after I started it
I posted it on Artstation and I made a short video as well:
Thanks to everyone who came to this thread to provide valuable feedback or to motivate me, this was a lot of fun!
