Project Title: Style Matrix - Stylised Shop Front
Overview: I designed and created a low poly candy shop (7,306 tris) slightly Halloween themed for my own and others amusement. I used 3 x 1024 texture sheets for the main body of work and 2 x 512 for the base and the emissive lights. All textures are hand painted and only a diffuse as I hand painted light information.
Research/Design: For my shop front I wanted to go very stylised and also quite cute. I created some moodboards with similar images and also some that were more focused on a theme. I was leaning towards a Halloween based idea so I did some sketches and transferred them over to digital to view. I then iterated these designs, explored the colour palette and drew up my final concept.

Conclusion: I'm actaully really pleased with the outcome of this project. I managed my time well and I kept myself focused and organised which I am realised is very important and makes managing the project easier.If I were to work on this project more I would most likely work on the textures more and get way more detail in. I'd also make the model a little higher poly to exaggerate the shape more. Overall I'm proud of the work I did in engine and the final outcome.
