BA5 Studio Project | Production #12


Asset #04 - Table Style Exhibition/Display Cabinet (wood & glass)



This asset was a little harder to create because I didn’t have many reference images. This is actually a design that was done in an environment concept art piece by Olive in BA4. A table like wooden exhibition display cabinet with wooden exterior and glass top. She found it when we went on a field trip at the beginning of BA4 to get a feeling for the environments and assets within a castle museum and therefore I only had her concept art and 1 photo reference to go by. 

 


 My tutor Lothar hasn’t seen this asset yet as I created it yesterday after the 3D session. I am proud of it because I think the legs still look detailed but they are low poly and basic geometry shapes. If I could do incredibly high poly models then I could use smooth and make really detailed grooves and ring edges around the legs but for 4 small legs on a table that wont be noticed or pull heavy focus within the game I think these will do okay. I am also thinking of tweaking the model slightly, making the top smaller and the legs thinner and longer but this will do as a rough design for now. I am happy with the top of the cabinet and the legs :)   

  Assets So Far!
Here is a screen cap of all the assets I have created so far and how they look next to each other.
