Landscape Finished

Landscape Modelling Finished


Ok I've now finished Modelling my landscape for my animation project. My theme was ancient China and I think I've managed to construct an environment that resembles that.

What I think brings this together so well is sadly the simplest and quickest thing I did, the fog. It adds so well to the overall surroundings giving it a mythical feel.



I'm also happy with the temple that I built into the mountain. This was a funny thing to build, I wanted it to be very ornate with lots of stuff going on, however I was really worried about the amount of polygons this would require so I had to strike a balance.

And I think it looks pretty good but it needs textures. Which brings me nicely onto my next task I'm going to texture it to give it a much deeper sense of depth and bring out some of the details that I've planned such as the roof tiles. But so far I'm pretty happy with it, it's basic enough to allow the characters to become central to the piece of work but it's good enough to give the impression that they are in China.
