Treasure Chest from kizz on Sketchfab.
﻿And so the chest is finished! I can already see vast improvments in my work (in both approach and final product) from when I started off this little exercise (sorry crate). I think I even have my own little twist on the painterly style, which is pretty neat!
The original design of the chest featured little legs which added a lot to the sillhouette but no matter what I tried I just couldn't get them to look right. As a result I removed them near the end of the study. Unfortunately that means there's a small chunk of the texture sheet which is unused on the actual model (in case you were wondering what that weird blob on the right was).
I think I need to work on my wood texture, still. Mostly in regards to detail, scratches and such. I think that would really make the texture pop a bit more and make it more visually interesting.
And I'm still not 100% sold on my metal texture either. I've been doing some looking into it and it seems that it's the highlights that really sell it as metal, so that's something I need to work on for sure.
