research for assets

Research for all assets

To show that i did research all of the items in my map so that they were accurate for the era i found pictures for most the items that needed them like walls, inkwells etc things like tables didn't really need research since they would really be just standard wooden tables

 

Walls

i had to research walls because in Tudors they had certain looks to there building as in every era so i found pictures as reference for my artists

These are some photos i show to my artists as reference for the walls in out Tudor level

 

 

Ink Wells

 

Ink wells also needed research so i also found pictures for my artists

 

 

These are some examples of ink wells that my artists used as reference as you can see Tudor era inkwells are generally the same shape and design with maybe more expensive ones made of glass and cheaper ones made of wood as you can see above.

 

Benches

We had to research bench designs just to be sure what they looked like in that era so not to make mistakes  

 



as you can see the benches tend to stick to the same design the only big variation other than this is a bench with a back rest but we decided to use ones like these for our level on the grounds that ones with backs may have been more expensive and that it would be easier and faster for artists to make them. Also the only difference between these type of benches are they all have different designs on there legs so artists could be creative in there making.

 

Bookcases

In our game it will be set in a school and like almost every school it would have books so we then realised we also had to make bookcases we researched types of the era bookcases

 

As you can see like many things they are all very similar giving the artists less room for there own creativity but it does give them a specific object to work with but with this there is less room for in-accuracies

 

These are the main assets that needed research for our artists
