Final Project: Kerning PQ

For the final project, the assignment was to use inspiration from an existing architectural style, and make something in accordance to that.

I immediately thought of a game I used to play as a childhood, MapleStory. I wanted to take one of the most iconic locations, and turn it into a 3D scene in Maya.

Original:

Kerning PQ MapleStory

I wanted to focus on lighting as well throughout this project.

Final results:

Overall, I think it turned out really well! I unfortunately ended up not paying too much attention to lighting (just used a sky dome), because the scene in game is outdoors, and perfectly evenly lit — meaning that it wasn’t a great scene to begin with to play with lighting.

But!

I’m really happy with the final result :) I think I did a good job with materials and accuracy, and that was my primary focus.
