Hi everyone, I feel ready to start a new project, I'm trying to keep things small. I'll be doing a small environment, not even a room... It will be a wizard desk full of books, scrolls, devices and creepy stuff and kind of a wall with a window and the ground for background. I'm starting today. Get ready for some images in…

Made some papers and scattered around the desk top, also a chest, and an ink bottle with a feather This is whats going to be the support for the orb emiting blue light in my scene. In the begining I was going to model some kind of plant motif but couldn't resist and added this kind of little sculpt. I sculpted this with…
