Hunter's Cabin

Here's my Unreal Engine render of OKU's Hunter's Cabin environment!

Be sure to check his portfolio out, it's full of awesome pieces like the Hunter's Cabin:

With this project I wanted to take another shot at houses/complicated buildings, and I think I nailed this one. Also those plants looked like a blast to make, and they totally were!

Final shot!

Again I'm not very good at making gifs but here's some of the fireflies and falling leaves in action

Chop that wood, fam

I did vertex painting of a tileable ivy texture and then used 3D ivy to get a good mix and make it look better than just one or the other

This tree's got it all

I wanted to do a much better job UVing this than I've done on previous houses, and I did

I modeled the straw and then tiled it in zbrush, turned out way better than I thought it would.

It has "extra" wall/roof faces to make UVing and vertex painting easier. I wanted to use more geometry to show more detail than I've done previously

They're arranged with depth so I could just move the piece forward or back and it would automatically reduce/increase ivy density depending on how much I moved it. Good middle ground between fixed density and painstakingly placing every single leaf.

The pretty plants and their single texture/material! Since they're up close I didn't skimp on the geo.

Same thing with mixing planes of a texture and the 3D counterpart. Looks much better than just painted branches with the "real" branches strewn in.

Thanks for looking!
