[WIP] Bloodborne Env fanart

Shredd

Hey Everyone, Bloodborne was the first souls like game I played, and after finding this concept I thought it'd be cool to give it a go, here's my blockout progress so far . Any feedback would be really appreciated, cheers!

Shredd

tweaked lighting, made a brick material, also made a trim sheet for the architecture which will integrated next update

Ashervisalis

Killin it!! I would like to see a bit stronger of a directional light from the moon,

Shredd

@Ashervisalis Thanks man I'm building the lighting with the change now, I'll hopefully post it tomorrow!

Lewis_kennedy

the lighting definitely makes it really striking looking, great work so far.

Shredd

@Lewis_kennedy Thanks man

Shredd

another lighting update

wenglish

This is looking great, I'm loving those gothic shapes and fog.

Maybe not too much fog, so you can still see those cool spires you have in the background. And maybe more ambient light, the ref shot you posted has very strong ambient light, you might not want to to that bright with it though

Shredd

@wenglish Thanks man, yeah I think you're right about the fog and the ambient light, though I'm not really interested in matching the mood and lighting from the reference exactly. The ambient light is definitely too dark.

Shredd

Latest update, had a couple weeks break and came back with another lighting pass. I think I'm ready to start making the final assets!

Elivenger

This is starting to turn out really nice looking! I know you're not completely done yet but one thing I think could make your scene more polished and alive feeling is more wear and tear and dirt buildup in the corners of buildings. Maybe some decals would do the trick! Maybe also some stain decals dripping down the walls from the top! I think doing that would give your scene that extra kick! 

Shredd

@Elivenger Couldn't agree more I'm making final versions of all the assets, then adding a bunch of decals.

Ashervisalis

Looking sick! The scale is really off though. Your manikin looks extremely tiny compared to the ladders and lanterns.

valentin_baguirov

Really love the values on those arches, everything looks great to me

Shredd

@Ashervisalis yeah for sure, I've fixed it since this screenshot, but yeah they were way too big

Shredd

@valentin_baguirov Cheers dude  

RustedFaith3d

Nice work! Saw this on Jeremy Estrellado's Youtube channel the other day!

Shredd

@RustedFaith3d Thanks man

Shredd

did quite a bit of stuff, can't remember it all tbh I'll post more shots tomorrow

Shredd

Here's how the ground and walls are looking, I spent a lot of time trying to get the ground to a finished state. I feel like after I add some 3d bricks on the texture I'll be able to call the ground finished

Walls are getting close, I need to make some brick assets to place around to stop it feeling so flat, also gonna sculpt the trims for more interesting details.
Metal bars are still blockout mesh, need to find a design that fits the scene better.

Shredd

Rather large update here, I'll have some more screenshots soon I ported everything to UE5 and just general tweaking and finishing up some assets, it's been so long now I don't really remember what's changed but here you go

Shredd

Stuff

Elivenger

Wow this really turned out well!

Shredd

@Elivenger Cheers dude

Fabi_G

Nice progress and  atmosphere! Makes me want to play Bloodborne :P 
Liked the more orange light tones you had going earlier. Keep it up

Shredd

@Fabi_G Thank you yeah when I look back I really like the orange, but after a lot of time tweaking, I found this colour to be the best (imo of course) but yeah that orange light with blue ambient lighting is always a win

Shredd

I’ve been experimenting with ways to present props and assets, pretty happy with how it’s going

Shredd

I'm calling this guy done still a lot of stuff I want to tweak and add, but I felt it was time to move on. More shots on my artstation.
Thank you all for the feedback along the way!
