Final submission:
From the beginning I wanted to make a scene where you could move around and see different things, so you can move around and see what the cookies are doing in their Base.
In the process I changed some things from the original concept, one of these was the “monster” or “the zombie”, in the end this ended up being a smaller and more adorable surprise! (for our characters not so much)
It was a very nice job to do, I learned a lot about Substance painter (using the vertex colors to make masks was very, very useful!) I have improved doing retopoligy, one of my favorites in this project was the lollipop (the one with the spiral shape), after baking it looks very good using only few polygons.
One of the most challenging things was the expressions of the characters, it’s one of the reasons it took me until the end to do, but I’m happy with the result.
It was a very interesting and stimulating contest for the community.
Thank you! and good luck to everyone
Story:
Their world is now much more dangerous place and they are looking for a better place to live, they had heard of a very prosperous cookie base with a large mill that you could see in the distance, it had been a while since their friend the blue lollipop had gone in search for this base. So one day they decided to take the risk too, they got in the car and left! while they were in the car they were photographed, the photo would later be known as “Blender 2.77 Splash Screen”
However, due to the chaotic terrain they crashed (don’t worry, they’re fine), now they have to keep walking, in the distance they see the mill they were told about, they’re very close, the base gates have opened… and it seems that his friend blue lollipop has succeeded! but they must run, there is something that is chasing them!! maybe he is a monster? a zombie? or maybe something smaller and more adorable like… a cat! he just wants to play? our characters don’t want to find out.
Software used: Blender and Substance painter

First post:
Hi, everybody! I chose the blender 2.77 splash screen, from Poked Studio. I started with Blender with this version (at the end of it actually) and I loved the art style. I have some ideas in my mind right now about the characters being pursuit by “something”. I have some references right now about that thing, but its not completly clear, so for now i’ll start making the retopology of some props of the .blend file, those meshes are kinda heavy for Sketchfab so lets start! good luck to everybody!
