Gothic Church Model

Lars3D · 05-02-2010, 06:49 AM

Hello, I am new to these forums, and I though I would like to share with you one of my projects I am working on. I enjoy doing architecture based models, and though I would like to challenge myself with some gothic church based design.

Please note that this is still a work in progress. The model is about 80% complete and the textures are also still heavy in development. Bump maps ect still need to be made.

Please let me know what you think. Crits are welcomed.

Yeah I agree with rocneasta they'll help loads, nice texturing so far and a great model.

I forgot to mention that I work in 3DS Max 2009 with mental ray. The textures are custom made in photoshop.

I have discovered Your Thread today.
It looks very good.
I hope You don't mind, I have modified Your Texture.
- scaling it to 1024x1024 (The binary Scale is importend for Games.)
- converted it as tga
- made a bump
- made a normal map
- for hosting only reconvert it as jpg.

The (red) steps are here:
stretched (1024²) . . . . bumped . . . . . . . . . .. Normalmap

Thanks for the texture tips, I will make sure to do the same for my other textures. My concern now is how about I should go for lighting. either mr sun/sky or Spot/sky/omi Or something else. What do most people use with archetecture set-ups?
