Hall of fame.

This should be a fun one! my submission may be a bit more lengthy than they usually are, we’ll see how it goes.

My entry was going to be a dark default cube, incredible mysterious, no one know what’s inside it, but I think I have an actual idea this time around.

To get you inspired …

Inspired by M.C. Escher - Myan Maze Temple

Many, many years ago I created this maze. Based on the work of the Dutch graphic artist Maurits Cornelis Escher. [IMG_20190518_115743887] It’s the same cube repeated, where you can walk on the red carpet to go from point A to B. So I decided to build this thing (concept) in 3D. And finally create things like these examples. [Maze-Cube-cluster-02] [Maze-Cube-cluster-07]

Awesome Pete!!! I happen to be a fan of Escher’s work, and you did a fantastic job of it.

3D Model Made Me confused for a while

“The Leprechaun’s Home”

This one took me a little while.
A lot of the textures are from too many places to list, texturehaven.com, cc0textures.com, 3dtextures.me, etc. and some are procedural.
The leprechaun and goblin model is by Nazedo from cgtrader:

There is an Artemis statue on his desk there too and that’s by Rigsters on sketchfab:

Nice work friend

[Alexandra_Ispas]

Wow that image pulls me right into the world. I’ll love to play a game taking place somewhere like that! It’s like stepping right into one of Grimm Brothers’ fairytales.
What’s inside the tree trunk, I do wonder? I see a light, but I can’t tell what it is.

[Leon_V]

I’ve been to the countryside recently and saw some historic buildings so I was able to get some inspiration.

[Digitz]

I really like the stained glass windows. Those are fantastic.

[Leon_V]

Thanks Digitz, I just subdivided the face until there were enough faces to edit. It was kind of like trying pixel art.

[FedPete]

Too dark for me.

[Digitz]

I think I had that issue with another image I put on here. I think it’s a screen brightness thing. Everything is illuminated well and clear on my end.
This one might display better on your end though.

[Alexandra_Ispas]

Yeah it does look better lit up this way.

[niladri_ghosh]

Good job. Love those textures.

[niladri_ghosh]

I’m in. Hope you all enjoy this. Please share your thoughts and suggestions.
All the textures are downloaded from: https://texturehaven.com/

Increased the lighting

[Digitz]

I like the aesthetics, especially the trees. Looks like the UV unwraps for the stones around the fence and the front of the mausoleum could use some work.

[Ethan_Martinez]

Almost done with my submission, looking pretty good so far.

[Ethan_Martinez]

Pretty happy with this submission, got the textures off the internet, nowhere specific, just searched it up and went to images.
