Model quality is good.
This concept of sofa looks like strange unique exemplar - 1 combination. That's not super good for game - will be look weird when many instances of this sofa looks identical, even if 95% of humans have no good memory.

I only can recommend to split model to "lamps" and "bench". With or without other models will be more combinations.
By the way separating can be done further, and lamp can be separate object from fungal stem.
I think in this aspect TES series peak_of_design was reached in Shivering_Isles.
alysander: Nice! Good quality model, despite poor concept.
I agree with you that the concept was too specific and individual, so that it would look strange if you had such a throne in every tower, but I guess our idea of an concept art is different, as I see a concept as a guideline and not as a rule that the modeler has to follow. That's also the reason I was and still am wondering why Kura is modeling everything exactly like it is in the concept. But anyways, thanks for the critique :)
Another thanx for realizing my poor concept.

I think will be good if all stems colored with this green, and it dont need concave in seat.
May be more lighter-desaturated color will be good.
do NOT do azura or mehrunes dagon they are being worked on.
I suggest the vivec/praying ones. I can send u my vivec zbrushmodel if it makes it easier, and the shalk.
I would like to see a female Vivec for one of the statues near the High Fane. Perhaps even replacing the Vehk vs Shalk with a female Vehk vs Molag Bal, if we get the blessing of MK?
Could this Azura statue stay? Please? No disrespect to Tyveras, but this is far better quality in my opinion. It captures both the original game and Jors' concept art and seems like simply a stronger effort. It would be a waste to discard it simply because it didn't come first, despite being (in my opinion) the objectively better made piece.
@Kurasaki : Denevir просит тебя изменить лицо статуи на лицо данмера/Боэтии (в качестве примера Ravanna предлагает я так понимаю, вот это), так как над статуей Азуры уже работают. Красить статую не нужно - хватит фигуры. Также Ravanna спрашивает о количестве полигонов в статуе.
That's a little harsh, Ashking. Its entirely possible that Kura didn't know, or forgot that he did. In any case, regardless of which was created first; I think Kura's sculpt is of much higher quality than the first one, and it was made extremely quickly. It also requires less tweaking to fit whatever aesthetic the team wants in the end, because there's less wrong with it.
I think the project should worry more about asset quality than which came first, even if it does hurt some feelings in the end. In the end, its what is best for the project that matters. At least that's how it seems to me.
I agree with Ashking, just getting someone else to redo their model is unfair and quite frankly an arsehole thing to do .
Firstly it would be more constructive to give the original modeller some feedback so they can improve it. Secondly that's just wasting time redoing models when I'm sure there are other models that can be done.
Also I don't think that was directed at Kura, I think that was directed at the people complaining about the original Azura. Its pretty disrespectful.
Where did you take all this time\energy? Even to make prototypes - it's very good.

Nice, that you use my poor-drawed concept :)

Throwing in back handed comments is not a good way to critique things.
I will be use more images, if opinions are so possible to take to heart.

That was a good critique, it was straight and easy to read. No euphemisms or anything. That's how it should be.
Alys is right, and thats why we UV in tiles for roots kura ;)

I really like the models so far! Good job Kura :)

@Kurasaki, ты мог бы также выкладывать рендеры и 3D preview твоих завершенных моделей в Официальную галерею Skywind-а?
(asking kurasaki to publish his works to skywind gallery)
V_2
is V_1 hi-poly and V_2 low-poly?
No, the texture changed.
V_1
someone needs to sketch kurasaki eating cheese and pooping out models like a machine.
I think art professions more coffee-powered.
End.

A quick sketch of another sculpture.

Отличная работа.
Do not re-do models that other people are already working on. It is the rudest thing a modeler could ever do. Have you no manners?
