Hey all, I’ve decided to take on a pretty big project for myself. I’m working on recreating the potions classroom from harry potter. There’s thankfully a lot of reference images out there to work from, its just going to take some time. Its day one so i’m doing asset creation and room modeling. I’m struggling with how to unrap this ceiling. It is a half dome with a cylinder that extrudes from it, and I can’t figure out where to put the seams to get the bricks to fold up properly. I’d really appreciate some help.
Here’s a quick update. I’m kind of jumping around, asset creation, material work, modeling… whatever I happen to feel like doing at the time. This is going to be a long term type of a project. I’m not going for an exact duplication but I want to make it feel right.
I’m using Alt + D for all the duplication, that seems to be cutting down on the memory usage. Is group instancing something I can do in addition to that?
