The Forager’s Satchel

Software

• Blender

Overview
A stylised 3D asset I made to expand my portfolio, refine my sculpting skills, and to speed up my workflow.

Role and Contributions
I handled all aspects of the project, from the initial concept to the final render. The music is Who are You by Monday Hopes on Pixabay which I edited into 6 second loop for the spin animation.

Breakdown
My workflow for this project involved first sketching concept art and modelling a polished low-poly mesh. Using a denser version as a base, I sculpted in the details, saving time by only making minor adjustments to the low-poly mesh before baking, rather than retopologising. I combined hand-painted and procedural texturing, baking the material nodes into two sets of 2k PBR images.
