Hand painted mailbox

sketchfab

I'm experimenting with hand-painting textures and opted to use an unfinished mailbox as my first test subject. The experience allowed me to pick up new techniques and understand what works well and what doesn't in this field. However, I encountered some difficulties that were largely due to my own mistakes, but I learned valuable lessons from them. My goal was to achieve a hand-painted look without relying on any additional maps, which proved to be an interesting challenge. The concept is loosely inspired by a piece I came across in Jomaro Kindred's portfolio; you can find the link here: http://www.iwanttoworkforblizzard.com/project/warcraft
