Chinatown Environment Project

[_Enquis]

Hello, Im going to start a new project this time being an environment instead of a diorama, the environment in question is gonna be a Chinatown inspired place, here are the assets I’m gonna create for it including the modular assets that will help me make the buildings around. Also I improved my blocking adding more detail to it and the assets I got in mind for the moment.

Here is the blocking in bigger photos for more detail

Thank you and see you next week for more updates!

Week 2
This week I made some changes to the blocking, making it that you cant see the void and have some buildings around, creating a better sense that you are in a environment

Also I made the modular assets, giving them a first texture pass

See you next week!

Week 3
This week I started by finalizing the blocking scene, making it that the perimeter is more integrated into the scene and we cannot see the void now.

Then I added some bevels and more details to some of the modular assets, then I modeled the main road and applied a texture to it

Then I decided to model some more store entrances and building walls for the modular system.

With all of them modeled, I began putting them into the scene and added this bookmarks aswell

So finally this was the work of the week, here in the template we can see a summary of all the assets with their respective wireframe and references

See you next week!

Week 4
This week I changed the blocking all around the scene and replace it with actual assets of the buildings that go around the main area of the environment.

With the surroundings now changed to the final assets, I proceeded with the first lighting pass based on various references of Chinatown in the night and sunset.

And these are the results for the moment in the environment:

As it can be seen in some pictures of the bookmarks, I also started modeling the lanterns this week and will proceed with the texturizing this week.

See you next week!
