I’ve been digging through the Quixel Megascans Library to find materials that I can use to bring more life to my Cabin concept as well as making use of the Skatter plugin for SketchUp to populate the in-view landscape with trees. Typically, the more I work on different views, the more I see that I could try to add or change to the modeling to make it better. I am utilizing Thea Render for the test renders.
i´d love to have some feedback from the users
I´d like to have some comments to help me improve.
As part of the competition the most research for me went into selecting the perfect cabin for my design.I finalized on Wikkelhouse PreFab cabin by fiction factory as its design struck onto me the most appropriate for the mood and feel of the scene i want to create.
So i started off by getting the model from sketchup warehouse and modified and tweaked it in Maya so that i can work on it better.It just included bringing down the poly count without much loss to geometry and re-doing some parts of the model.
I gave it a quick render with rough materials on keyshot to know how it looks and its not broken.
One of the classical 1960 deck houses of Emsworth but in the mountains.
After taking a quick look a some inspiration imagery, I blocked out the form in Sketchup. Once that was done I imported an fbx into Unreal engine and sculpted a quick terrain that compliments the shape of the cabin and painted dense foliage around the site.
