Toy Box Home - a quick study

General / 15 April 2022

Started this project back in 2020 when I was brushing up on my Blender knowledge. I wanted to do something fun while learning so I decided to recreate an art piece into Blender as a challenge. I was doing nothing but furniture models in 3d before this so I was ready to try something new.

I found this: Credit to the original artist (they deleted their socials)

so... Easy enough - I quickly blocked in the scene and did my best to keep it simple by sticking to mainly primitive shapes modeled loosely. I wanted to capture the effortless simplicity of the design without looking like I put literally zero effort. Then I added a clay material to everything to give it a miniature kind of feel to it. Now it looks extra fun.

Spent some time dialing in the lighting and decided on a warm kind of tone, to feel homey. Even hand drew the posters against the wall by the computer to take the piece that much further. (lazer sounds) 


Final Render: Blender/Cycles

Also, shout-out to Scotty Lord. He attempted a more realistic approach to the same art piece. These awesome renders are his!

Thank you for reading.
