Looking for some feedback on my project. This is the start of a personal challenge to recreate as accurately as possible several pieces from the Art Institute of Chicago. This piece is based on a German tobacco box from1750/60 by Abraham Roentgen. I hope to have one or two pieces done every week.
That’s a good looking box and model of it.
Maybe the handle looks alittle too good on your model. And the metal needs some love. It looks like brand new gold. Wish I could help you with some advice how to produce old looking metal but I’m a newbie myself. Maybe you could use texture paint mode in blender to darken the metal?
I find that the gold rim and wood don’t really match- the gold is too perfect to match the box (with dents all over)
You should make the gold look a bit more rough.
