Incan stone chest

by Hyde on 1 Jun 2021 for Rookie Awards 2021

This chest was designed using a combination of Z brush, substance painter and Maya … I really enjoyed working on this asset and I think fits the timeline of the game and still draws the player into it. I used various research and mood boards to reach the 3d model that was put into the game which I think improved it.

For my 3rd year project we designed a game based on Incan and Aztec civilisation. As the game was based in a temple I created this strong asset to fill around the levels with variations of without lids and with as well as with coins showing etc.

The design of the chest as you can see above was based on the chest in the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie. I used substance painter for the development of maps. The colour scheme was related to the chest in the movie but also heavily of Incan culture such as gold work with drawings or themes inscribed into the rock and research for the use of stone for chests instead of wood.

For the development of this asset I reduced the count enough for Unity using tools in Maya and Z brush to improve topology and achieve a strong design without damaging the overall resolution of the model.

Because of the time frame of the game being ancient Incan based, and the use of the Llama being a sacred animal at the time as well as the vast amount of gold I designed the coins based on this with emerald eyes for a stylized design of currency that would lure the player towards the chests. Coin maps were developed in substance.
