Finally the Environment – Wizard Study room
So, another short update.
It was back when I made the previz room for the Wizards Study I found out roughly how I would make the room. Back then I did a lot of small tests to attempt to find some unique shape for the walls, since it is on top of a tower, as one can see here;
At this stage we also played with the shape of the tower, since at this point we where planning for the goat to climb all the way up and into the room! However when we trashed that idea, the outside vs the inside was not so critical, well, not much else to say about that. So, after a couple of attempts I found a look I liked on the room:
I basically decided to give him a bit large room, actually, it was huge, way to large so for every Version I made of it, the room became smaller but usually a lot. we had not worked much to how to scale things at this point nor did we have any characters. Anyways, These are all very early version that I made for to have something for the PreViz.
And here we got work on the “final” which I’m currently working on,
However, when I started putting in models that me and Andre have been working on, we found out that.. ouch. The room is still huge. We noticed it well when we started filling the room up with objects, so basically, I decided to cut a away a section of the room, which would be the 2nd “floor” Doing that kinda sucked cause I liked it. But it was necessary and I think it will look overall better and perhaps a more home feel to it. We will begin to texture it next week.
So this is the room, as it looks now, considering the walls and where I cut it, its not yet done, but I felt it was important to get all the major changes in the post before just posting something final.
There is still a good amount of details that is missing, but which will probably get done tomorrow. And on Saturday me and André is planning to get the Servant room done, its a lot smaller and got fewer details. And here is a close up of the wizards main work area, Note that nothing here is final! there will be many changed as to where stuff is placed etc! I find it bit amusing that that area which got so much detail is only going to last but a short moment. But I think it will be worth it.
