Sketchfab Hand Painting Challenge: Winter Scene

Brrrrr! For many of us it’s starting to get cold outside with winter being well on it’s way. What better way to spend these long winter evenings than hand painting a cosy (or freezing!) winter scene?

Update: Winner – Edelweiß Hut by Nicole Williams

To get you started, Sketchfab Masters CurlsCurly and dark-minaz have created a UV mapped model of a cosy winter cottage, UV mapped and ready to go – download it and and paint it up in any style you like (making sure you credit her as per the Rules):

Rules

• You can use any painting application that you want for this.
• Submit only new work, but feel free to submit multiple scenes.
• Once you’ve created your scene, upload it to Sketchfab and tag it #HandpaintedWinterScene.
• Hand painted textures only! This means creating the textures from scratch using Photoshop or any painting software instead of images.
• No editing of the original model geometry is allowed but you can hand paint normal, emissive etc. maps
• Credit CurlsCurly for her model in your model description, and include a link back to the original by adding this Markdown code:
