• codecontemplator: Wooden toy airplane

(Since I did not make the wood material myself I feel like this is open. All modelling by me.)

• Xalibur: Wood Thing

1965×1886 684 KB

(I did texturing in marmoset.)

• revolt_randy: Wooden Rocking Horse

(Open entry, character I downloaded, everything else is my work.)

3840×3840 2.09 MB

(This model was made quite a few years ago, but I was unsatisfied with the texturing. So for this challenge I decided to fix that, using materials from Poly Haven. Other than that, all of the modelling is my own. Oh, and the face too.)

Thank you @fcharr and congratulations to @HazelQ :slight_smile:

Hazel’s entry was definitely the best in my opinion—it simply looks convincing and authentic - especially the wood texture. Actually, I even liked the close-up image better. A very interesting composition that almost looks like a photograph.

I like the close-up a lot. If I’d had more time I would perhaps have changed the composition to focus more on the details.
