Life + New York Rooftop Project Update

Making Of / 14 June 2021

Hey everyone,

It's been a while since I last posted an update on the blog about the stylized New York project that I'm working on. I've still been working on this but due to other aspects going on in my life such has work, new career opportunities and enjoying BBQ's in the nice weather after being in lockdown for so long, the progress has sadly been slow. I think working on personal projects are important but it's good to prioritize mental health, so I've been trying to get away from the PC whilst the weather is nice. I'm only a few week behind on my project plan, so I will still get the project done and dusted this year.

To make up for the lack of personal project posts, here is a trailer for the game that I've been working on with the talented team over at Rare that dropped at e3 yesterday.

To give an update on my personal project, I've nearly finished making all the sculpts and here are a few of them.

I'm still working on the lamppost and some models look half done due to the fact that I will just reuse elements, such has on the barrel, I only sculpted a few loops that I will then copy down the barrel.

I will do one more blog post to show off all the sculpts in the next few weeks. Once I've done that, I will be at the retopology stage which is really dull and a bit boring, so I won't be blogging throughout this period has really it's nothing interesting to view. I would rather do a few interesting blog posts than weekly ones that don't have much interest to them.

That's all for this blog post + Thanks for reading:)

All the best,
Dom.
