More Lighting

The inside of the boat has been too dark with most tests so I have set a small light inside of it, and angled the sun to shine further inside and I am happy with the results

The interior looks much better, I made sure the rays of light hit at least one shelf to get a really cool shading effect

Render Tests

I have been practicing with rendering and trying different approaches of lighting

Still texturing

Texturing takes a long time, and I have taken inspiration from the movies textures its self. I also added some water effects. If I have time I will improve on the water by for now it will do.

Texturing

I have finished the new docks and have started assigning textures to each object.

New Scenery

I have changed my idea to a new scene, the main object is now a trading ship, at its own private docks. The Island of Berk is constantly being attacked by dragons, so the Vikings would obviously need to trade with other Viking colonies to survive, so I will be depicting that.

Boat interior

  I have been working on all the objects to go inside the supply ship

Docks and interior

I have been looking closely at the structures in the movie to insure my dock scene come out similar

I also have been working on sketches of what I want to go inside the boat

Boats

I looked at how the viking boats are structured in the movie and drew up a sketch of how I want my boat to look

It has an added hut on the actual ship to hold all the supplies

Mapping

I sketched the layout of the scene and created two rough images of how I want the scene to look

 

Project 2

For project 2 I have selected 'How To Train Your Dragon' as the movie I will be creating a new scene for. I have decided to create a supply ship to include into the scene at 1:06:30 where the ships are being prepared to sail to Helheims Gate. The movie doesn't show any supplies being loaded, which is where my ship will come in.

There will be strong shadows as it is the middle of the day, and the cliffs will cast some long shadows but I will make sure not to cover anything important in darkness.
The docks are very rough and messy already, but with lots of small details. I will also try to make some sort of water animation.
I will photoshop the textures before importing them to give them a softer feel which will fit in with the movies aesthetic effectively.
The camera shots will be wide at first, then a fly-through will go inside the ship to show the smaller objects inside
