Decided to take a shot at furniture. Created a table based on the model shown in one of the livestreams. Also had some inspiration to try and design a bonsai tree. Here they are…
Thanks, it really means a lot! I’m not a very talented drawer or painter so it feels good to be fairly competent at this type of art. =)
I’m working on a few new things as I watch the live-stream, as well as an update for the bonsai tree to make it look less blocky. Might upload them sometime tomorrow.
Sticking to the Japanese theme I have done some work on the bonsai tree I posted last as well as created my first draft at two pieces of samurai yoroi (armor); the kobuto (helmet) and dō (chest armor).
Next task is possibly creating some of the traditional samurai and peasant weapons as well as a few armor variants. I’ll also look into a few suggestions if anyone has any.
wow, missed the Samurai update… impressive work! hope we get to see more of your models in the future…
the only constructive feedback i might offer is to tweak his helmet a bit, to break up some of the top and bottom portions… overall though, i really like the model…
I have a deep love for Japanese culture as I’ve been training in various Japanese martial arts/sciences for the past 10 years, so you will definitely see a lot more of that influence in my future models. I’ve leven been toying around with a few mod ideas as well.
Going to be moving to a fresh, official Topic later on this weekend/early next week as I think I have convinced the inexperienced programmer in me to develop a mod.
In the meantime though I figured I’d post a little something to hint at what I’ve been working on. (The mockup was a little rushed, but keep in mind no samurai were actually impaled by a sheathed sword during it’s making. )
