Following in the wake of the 'Roller Stamp' I designed recently, comes my take on the Inkwell and Quill. Featuring a button activated inkwell with ink application, a rolling quill tip and a sealed bottle of orange ink. #b3d #substancepainter #gamedev #gameart #indiedev

Reworking the composition and reblocking out the sides.

Feeling this!

I need to damage up the left tower and work on the walls.

Trees going on the right side I think.

More updates soon.

Little bit more work on my environment. I should have more blocked out tomorrow as I didn't get a huge amount of time to work on it today.

Starting to layer in some more of the blockout. Figuring a direction of the layout, texture usage before working on the models (decimated right now with basic UVs).

Landscape will be build using spline meshes, blending the base landscape with the spline meshes similar to my SW environment
