Hello everyone!
For this challenge, I'm going to be working on some 3D props inspired by Fishermen’s District Vol.1 from Max Bedulenko. I really connected with the worldbuilding in this concept, it reminded me of grounded fantasy worlds like The Lord of the Rings or The Hobbit, especially with the handcrafted elements and the cultural details hidden in the environment. Right now, I’m gathering reference materials and trying to define the mood, materials, and level of wear I want the props to have. I'll be using Blender for base modeling, ZBrush for sculpting high-frequency details, and Substance 3D Designer & Painter to create the materials. The goal is to achieve a grounded but ornate look , objects that feel useful, but also carry a story.
This will be a fun way to challenge myself and improve my workflow. Really looking forward to sharing more soon!
Stay tunned!
