the well is a lovely idea, but sadly i’ve already created one. instead i’ve chosen to create someone’s backyard. whether or not this is actually someone’s backyard i do not know, but it’s what i’ve made.
the challenge of using only primitives was fun. there were many times i wanted to jump into edit mode to make the objects exactly how i wanted them, but i resisted. in the end i did achieve a satisfactory result with the manipulation of textures, lighting, and few modifiers. it’s far from perfect but i was able to hone in on some areas that will need further investigation such as eevee’s lighting system. it’s much different from how i would light a scene in cycles. i find the difference in filmic color management fascinating and am excited by the options for bloom and volumetrics.
it still amazes me how everyday things are as simple as cubes, cylinders, and cones.
