WIP The Inn- Advice and critique welcome!!
polycounter lvl 3
Hey all!
I wanted to share the progress of the work I've been doing on an environment, This is probably the biggest project I've ever worked on so I'd really appreciate feedback and critique if possible!
I'll be building this environment in Autodesk Maya! Concept by Greeimm Bae
I collected a huge amount of reference and I am currently Using Pure Ref to sample it all at once (There is more it just wouldn't fit in this capture)
Now that I've collected my reference I moved on to blocking out the environment.
I did my best to stick to the concept. I felt that I was able to move on to adding small details at this point (like the barrels and chests having more detail) But bow that I've blocked most of the details out, I'm going to tweak a few things to make the environment make more sense in a 3D Space.

I did play around with the way that the tops of the sacks look as well. I'm going for a stylized approach to this so I'm keeping everything very simple right now before sculpting.
I was thinking about taking my blocked out version here and using a stylized fur brush in zbrush. I thought about using fibermesh, but I feel that the detail of the fibermesh would be too much of a difference in style for everything else in this environment.
After that, I will add the cards of the bristle's line thingy(whatever it is called) onto the model to break the shape of the silhouette and add more "fluffy" to it.
Similar idea to this workflow:

I'm not an expert but this is something that I will do. So take this tip as a grain of salt. Hope this helps.
Keep it up. It's looking great!
I haven't had too much time to work on this in the past week or so but I've made a few small adjustments since the last update.
I've added some variation in the stone arches to add a bit of character to the environment and created a pumpkin model to duplicate in areas. I replaced a lot of my blocked areas in the scene with the models and I've going to move on to sculpting here soon.
Ant feedback is still greatly appreciated!!
I haven't used maya, but i know in 3ds max you could do something like that and it might make a decent result
or some kind of hair/fur modifier? that might end up being a bit different to the kind of style from the concept though, and again, basing this on my limited knowledge of 3ds max, so I have no idea if this is even relevent to maya
I wanted to take try to create a style as close as possible to the concept that also blended well together and was easy to repeat in all elements of the environment. Here I modeled the section of the back wall with the candles and stone Arch.
The wooden plank is missing some details at the top and ends but this gives me an idea of what I'd like to stick with stylistically.
