For this set of props, I wanted to try a different workflow, test out some ideas and techniques and follow a concept done for Dark Souls 3.

Creating this set gave me the opportunity to finally test out the Decimation master plugin in ZBrush. You'll be able to see where the plugin was used and where I manually retopologized, it is a good tool without a doubt for fast retopology, but it has it's limits and if used often you might get a lazy habit. For the props, I used the concept art in the Dark Souls 3 Design Works book as reference, I really like the design created for this set and wanted to do my own version following the concept, gave my own touch as well, ageing them, adding damage and the sense of them being left behind a long time ago. Took in total about 3 to 4 days, researching, testing and experimenting, modelling, sculpting, retopo, texturing and rendering to complete it. Any feedback is appreciated!
