Work In Progress - Mythic Dawn Priestess Materials

Added 2021-02-27 19:24:34 +0000 UTC

Hello there dear Habsburgs and Bourbons,

moving on with the jewelry design, materials and heightmaps for the Mythic Dawn Priestess project.

As i posted lately, I modelled some very simple medallion-based layouts of the jewelry and tried to distribute these elements in a balanced way.

I added a dark pearl at the bottom end of the front lacing cords. I still want to engrave it a little bit more.

I also played with opacity masks and created some holes in the medallions, which made them look lighter.

I distributed the medallions and rings using iToo Railclone plugin for 3dsmax. It allows you to distribute objects and sequences of objects along a chosen spline which is really cool when you want to design a decorative chain. Of course you have to UV map the modules nicely before distributing them ;)

Anyways, we're getting closer and closer to some first screen tests of the new outfit. Stay tuned :)

I'm really curious how it will look like on a character. It always is a bit different than on previews.

Besides this project was very emotionally involving for me. On one hand, I wanted this outfit to stay Leto, and don't change the first look, and on the other hand, I wanted to show the Leto's author that I don't need that inspiration to do a similar outfit in 3d.

I'm glad the end is nigh :D

Have a nice weekend guys!
