Cute Town Scene & More! The Rookies Entry

Breakdown:

First I used Blender to create a basic blockout of the environment, making sure it matched the reference to capture the overall scene accurately.

After refining the geometry further, I began UV unwrapping the scene.

I created hand-painted textures directly within Blender, meticulously crafting details to match the reference.

I adjusted lighting to complement the scene, enhancing overall atmosphere and mood.

I used Blender's texture node editor to create an animated river texture.

I then animated the foliage, and rendered the final scene to showcase the polished 3D environment.

The reference I used is by @Kemineko on Twitter.

Character

I made this character as part of my coursework at CGSpectrum. 

I began in Maya by blocking out the basic forms and then refining the topology and shape.

Then I modelled the clothing, shoes and hair.

I then UV unwrapped the character and textured in Substance Painter.

I rendered the character using Maya.

Axolotl Creature

I made this Axolotl creature as part of my course work at CGSpectrum.

I started in Zbrush, blocking out the shape and then refining and adding details. 

I then brought it into Maya to retopologize and UV unwrap.

Texturing was done using Substance Painter.

Rendered using Maya.

Thanks for checking out my work!
