I think you should remove the classroom environment. Not only is the quality lower, but it's also simpler and less interesting than the Victorian stuff and the sub-base. Plus: that's casino carpet, not classroom carpet; and Alienware in a classroom, doubt it. edit: woops, didn't see your last post. My bad.
Just finished H. Rider Haggard's King Solomon's Mines and HG Wells' War of the Worlds and The Time Machine, and about to start on Bram Stoker's Dracula. Ploughing through a shedload of Victorian lit after reading Jess Nevins' annotations to League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Me = Big ol' geek...
My newest baby: Deagle - Gargoyle. Whole design is using handpainted normal map to create a dark themed gargoyle sculpture integrated into model geometry. Inspirations come mostly from gothic and victorian architecture. Thanks for checking it out. :) Link to workshop:…
1st pass on the bricks, needs work but I think its coming along.. the main thing is I've noticed, is that victorian brickwork is layered out differently (big brick little brick.) I may also need to up the contrast.. I will post my brick texture on its own later!
I'm not an environment artist but I would definitely recommend working on the Victorian Room. I think it'll give you the most opportunity to expand your knowledge and try lots of different techniques and ideas. I'm super impressed with your commitment, I only started pushing myself to get projects finished in the last few…
Heck yeah man! It's going to be pretty fun :) Here's a quick sketch I did just now for the throne, since the Victorian era was so very ornate, I decided to go juuuust a little over the top for the throne. I'll add more gears to it when the actual model is done, mostly because making an animated throne would be awesome.
Putting lights in that scene might solve a lot of your problem. Gaslights or something else equally steampunkish/victorian. Also, some of them surfaces that are so empty could use some decoration, or breaking up into large slabs of stone. Maybe a relief with the same motif as the row of statues on top of the collonade?…
Hey everyone, Used to play UT 2004 back in the day and loved it, so I thought I'd give this a go. I want to create the interior of a steel works and take influences from old victorian items and gothic architecture. The main focus of the enviro will be the blast furnace area, If I have time later on I might try adding the…
Hey, I'm taking a modern crossbow and giving it more Victorian aesthetic for my class. It's currently still is a really rough block-out phase where I'm still dealing with the overall look. I used the more modern crossbow with a wood stock and I'm thinking about adding engravings through heavy usage of my normal map.…
Updates for the scene. This is the study of Malius Altemius, a wizard a part of the Atomic Order. The Atomic Order is a Victorian time traveling order dedicated to maintaining the proper timeline. Malius' crowning achievement is taking down the Horned King, a grand master lich. He keeps his head on display, and out of…
