Ok, feel strong enough to make an attempt at this subject! Go!

Medieval Age - Collab 2021W04 Short Diary

This time diary will be probably quite short. I almost given up, but due to FedPete’s flexibility in the deadline I decided that maybe I’ll manage to do something. My original idea was to make a simple scene inspired by legends of King Arthur (Excalibur floating just above the lake, with a lady’s hand holding it). Most probably will not do a full scene, but at least will go there partially. My PureRef board looks like that: [image] Quite sparse, but should be enough at least to do par…

[JaneDoe]

Here is my final scene. Thank you for organising these challenges, this was a massive learning opportunity for me.

[FedPete]

Love the rope (knot)!

“This Scroll Blah Blah Blah is really important stuff”

Great composition! Glad you found some time to build this scene.
Love the details, really fun stuff.

[bOBaN]

Lol, good catch

[anfloy]

Many good stuff, Jaco_Pretorius I am charmed, a lot of details, very good idea

I had ambitious plan to make tavern like from Witcher but i didn’t find time as always, so I ended with low version But I had fun and learned new things.

[bOBaN]

Done

[Jaco_Pretorius]

Far from expectations but calling it…

…learnt a lot about cloth so was worth it.

[FedPete]

So much hard work in this one!

Some great entries this week of a whole variety of styles, techniques, and subjects, hard choice.

It was really hard to choose. Or in a way it’s really easy to choose - as this time around I can cast a vote to any submission and feel good about it

[Miss_B]

Excellent entries this week, all of them, so it was hard to choose!

[vorp]

Super inspiring to see all the amazing entries this week! I hope to join in some week in the future. Congratulations to everyone who entered on such splendid work!

[Luis_Amorim]

good job guys!

[FedPete]

Congratulations @Jaco_Pretorius, with a beautiful sculpture.
I must say the colour version is excellent, but my personal favorite is still the grey version.
I do not why!

Think about a new subject!
Great sculpt achievement.

[Jaco_Pretorius]

Thanks Pete. It was a great learning experience.

@FedPete

my personal favorite is still the grey version.

The grey one has around half a million verts, while the colored one has around 3k verts… That’s probably why you prefer it

There was no re-topology for the texture paint… in a rush I just decimated the hell out the model and did a smart UV project… So the baking wasn’t great and the painting has some glitches that turned into a “style” accident that I just left.

Good works everyone else. Special mentions: My favorite works were from @Leon_V and @Orion_Dauter… fun scenes that really captured the theme. @JaneDoe’s rope is super detailed and impressive. @anfloy’s scene has a really nice atmosphere and great textures.

[Jaco_Pretorius]

I know it’s been a couple of weeks but thought this is probably the right place to post it.

I used the model form this entry as a 1st attempt at gltf export to Sketchfab:

Thanks to Grant’s character course I managed it in the end.

Free to download… enjoy.

Great work!
