[Finished] Ghibli Environment in 3D - Princess Mononoke

SomeAB · Feb 2020

Software: Blender 2.8X (Eevee Render)
Style: 3D Stylized environment (hand painted as well as procedural), with some 2D elements (tree & grass patch only)

Hello, I'm new to this site, and would like to share my wip artwork that I'm about to finish. To be honest, when I started this project, I had very little of knowledge of how to texture paint, but by trial and error, I learned the various methods to do it.

Hey! It's looking really cool, but to me, it's missing one of the things that gives the original so much of its character: it's missing the ropes used to join the logs and reinforce the structure. To me, those are so much of what adds interest to the original, and a big part of what makes the silhouette so interesting.

Yeah, I started with this one way back (about 2 years ago!) when I didn't even knew how to properly UV unwrap properly. I'm aware about the ropes issue, but there were a few things broken under the hood to fix it. And the project was just collecting dust and making me depressed.

On the bright side, I managed to learn a lot of tricks of how to implement Ghibli in 3D for the future.
