Been having this idea for a mid-poly game model of a really old, warn and used throne carved out of a stump.
I wanted it to also be a project where I apply and combine things I’ve learnt lately on separate projects, or while reading so this will be about twisted wood, branches with leaves and vegetation around the throne, sticks and stones…
Also thinking about adding an appropriate character to sit on it at some point…
I sculpted it this weekend, retopologized my sculpt which came around 3500 tris and baked the goods to three textures (normal, ao and vertex colour), combined them in gimp. Still have loads to do. Hope someone likes it :).
I wasn’t sure how to progress on the ground around it for a few days, now I’m convinced it needs to be raised high, with a path leading up to it, and more roots sticking out along the way. Probably I’ll add some slavic carved totem poles behind it.
