Slightly Broken.

My main things to do now are; seperate the house pieces, and texture them all appropriately. It's been about a week now that I'm trying to clean up this broken mesh.

Turns out I've some how got face upon face upon face duplicates...I delete and they keep going!

This update sounds like an awful rant, but in honesty this mesh is very broken and slowing down my overall progress to focus on more important things. Next update should hopefully be better. :)

Nope, it's Unity time!

I've abandoned UDK, it's just being a mess. Besides, I've used Unity to create a side scrolling game, but never incorporated 3D into it, so I'd like to try it out. I've luckily got a friend who's helped me figure out the collision and playable character elements too! Excuse that my character is tiny and that the lights are just shoved in to see where I'm walking:

But it's more progress than UDK was giving me. So it's time to move back to Maya, and start cleaning up the mesh and texturing all of the elements...eeep.

UDK time!

...It's not going so well, I'm not sure why. Got afew friends helping, and I've done this before, but for some reason it's coming out very...broken:

To be fair, this screenshot doesn't show how messed up the last upload was. The bookcase was mangelled. It looked cool, but it's not what I'm trying to do, sadly.

I've avoided UDKing so far, but thought I'd check my mesh at least works alittle bit before I start splitting it up for textures etc. Not sure where to go from here...

Final House Layout/Model

It's done! This is it in Maya:

I now need to cut it up, UVing, texturing and start importing it into UDK. Ouch! So much to do!

1890's

Victorian Houses in London were built during the reign of Queen Victoria (1837 - 1901)

Already posted a similar moodboard, but wanted to stick this up too, it helped me during concept art-ing. Also love the wee tophat on the sofas arm; reminded me about Basil Howard's hat on the sofa in the library, the night he's murdered...

The original concept sketches...

Some very dull quick doodles, 10 mins I'd say. Worth uploading cause it helped shaped my library and some of it's assets (the sofa for example):
