CABINS entry by Bruno Andrade

For this contest I want to have a nice image by the lake, showing to the viewer a relaxing place to look at the view, get some sun, play with the kids, get into canoes and come back to a cozy cabin for that hot chocolate in the end of a fun and relaxing day. I’m not good at concepting ideas on paper, I can do simple lines but I’m very visual in a sense that I have to get reference images and start to imagine what I want to do. The next stage is blocking out a rough pass on this idea and keep refining it further. I’m modelling in 3dsmax and bringing it all to Lumion 8 for the final real time render. The lighting will be either a nice and sunny day or a nice sundown.

I am doing something quite different with my contest entry. The Main 3D modeling software used is well, Minecraft. I have been using Minecraft not just as a fun pass time – but to recreate actual architecture! This contest is a perfect opportunity to show that there is more to this game than meets the eye. The cabin is not to scale to a typical player. It is much larger so i could show the smaller details.

CABINS entry by Jorge López

Work started with no straight idea, just improvising. First the height map of the ground, then textures and finally the trees and the old house. One thing i decided was to only use free material: free textures, free models and free plugins. The final result evokes me a silent place where to hide from the daily routine.
