great overview love this 🙂 handy to see the progress of every member

Very nice! It’s cool to see the different interpretations from people working on the same asset without having to tab between multiple different WIP threads.

nice work Andrea!

Currently planning out how I want to balance sculpting and shading for details on my vase – clay pots tend to have a relatively uniform shape so the sculpted detail would probably consist of chips/cracks or the occasional mark when removing it from the pottery wheel, while stuff like the horizontal bands around the surface from the sculpting process might be easier to do procedurally rather than manually.

On a similar note, how closely do we want to synchronise the styles for the vases at this stage of development? Everyone going for the same style would match the concept art, but might result in slight differences standing out more than if they weren’t intended to be exactly identical.

I can’t clearly recall if it was you @duerer who suggested a Loki(?) Easter egg in the Spice Vendor scene in the 1st Collab Live Stream, but anyway here is a very short list of some relevant runes for anyone interested in such things. Either to be cut on standing stones or in hidden tree trunks.

[Vincent]

And because my brain can’t let go, here is a standing stone concept. Obviously would be in Vadim’s colour palette if modeled. Similar colours as the rocks I mean. The red is mostly to help see the carved detail.

And while I’m still on this Easter egg fixation, there is always the far simpler option of some one modelling Loki’s mask from The Mask(1994) floating down the stream or hidden inside the house. @dostovel So that would give you 2 Easter eggs in 1 object:

Loki and Jim Carrey.

Hopefully know my mind can rest and return to more important things 🙄

@createtaiwan I’ll ask Kent @theluthier because he’s the master of the XP points 😉.

[Ingmar Franz]

@vincav81 I didn’t have the idea with the Loki rune but I like the idea of such hidden Easter Eggs 😀! We have to ask Vadim @harbinger_ua what he thinks about this.

[Vadim Zaitsev]

The thing with rune stones is that they will create an additional point of interest that might drive away the attention from the house itself. I like the alternative idea with the mask inside the house. It will both add life to the interior and help us in populating the space with various objects. @vincav81  @duerer 

[Ingmar Franz]

Good point, Vadim @harbinger_ua 👍! I didn’t think at this.

[Omar Domenech]

I like the Easter eggs idea, The Mask mask tickled my brain, I want to do that. And I feel I can see the Bluetooth logo with the Thor and Loki rune.

And another feeling I have is that Vincent will probably join us if the interior of the house happens. Yay.

[Ingmar Franz]

Thank you, @splat21 , for your in-depth explanations and illustrations 👍! That really helps 😀!

[Ingmar Franz]

@jlampel Thank you for your answers concerning n-gons and texturing 🙂!

[splat21]

@amblender, can you confirm what specifically resolved your problem?  I would like to consider using this as an example in my upcoming Blog.  But, if this doesn’t solve the problem, then it wouldn’t be a good topic for me to cover.  😀

[Vincent]

@dostovel Apparently you are correct in a way about that Bluetooth link. https://www.leverege.com/blogpost/what-is-bluetooth-6-facts

@harbinger_ua Yes, a very good point. Honestly I have no idea how big these would be in the scene. I only did this to get it out of my head and get some thought space back.

Only if you, Vadim, and Omar think that such a suggestion might fit with the aesthetic, there’s always the option of making chess pieces or mini trinket paper weights. Similar to the Lewis chessmen.

Honestly I wish I could recall who it was that triggered all of this inside my over active mind, but it would most certainly be an ill spent amount of time trawling through the Week 1 Live Stream comments that I can devote to better things.

Although @theluthier Kent could probably make another sculpting course/live stream out of this concept, if he wanted to.

I’d better stop before my imagination thinks of anything else.

Goodnight from Australia. (He wrote, typing at 1:17am) 🥱
