The House
Before UVs, Materials, and interior
The Floorplan
Testing the reflectivity, opacity and scale of the window with a character base mesh
Test - Interior walls and scale
First Material Test
Second Material Test
The Couch - This was a test for sizing and placement. The couch was made from cubes, subdivided, and creases were sculpted. I couldn't quite manage to get the physics to work properly to show a weighted indentation from the character.
The TV - This is the last render I exported from this scene, hence the updated wood texture, reduced hair particles, new furniture and fireplace light.
The Fireplace
The Rug - Fur Particles
On the outside looking in.
Just a quick shot, mainly looking at the different lens sizes for interior and exterior shots.
Final test - Interior lighting and dust/hair particles. I think that I need to tone them down a bit...
Interior paint swatches, used to determine interior wall colors.
This house and living room scene is a work in progress. It is part of an animation that is meant to have a vintage stop motion aesthetic, so materials are scaled and edited to reflect their doll-sized dimensions. The props and furniture are based off of items from the 50s-60s, but I didn't use any firm references to keep the "hand-crafted" feel of a miniature set. The House itself is based on a real house blueprint from the late 1950s that I then modified to fit the layout I wanted.
I am taking a short break from this. However, when I revisit it, I have some plans for how to keep steady progress and will also shorten the overall length of the animation.
