“I would love an Interactive experience, to feel like I was there…”
3D Model Creation
Most of the models were self-made, bellow follows some captures of the proccess, a basic level sketch (that changed), the 3d modelling proccess of an egyptian Lyre, the security cam props and one of the inspirational pictures used to build the room style.
Conclusion
Was a good experience, though I have to say the more I develop for mobile devices, more eager I get to migrate to desktop VR and/or high performance VR. The restrictions (shaders, lights and etc…) in the mobile platform still reduce the level of reality considerably.
