Following this lovely tutorial series by Grant Abbit, I made this cottage! I mostly followed the instructions to the letter, but when it came to the render I did end up branching out on my own to play about in the blender compositor with post-processing effects.
It by no means came out looking bad raw, but I did end up doing a little bit of further post-processing in Clip Studio Paint, which I’m just a lot more familiar with.
The tutorial was very much within my comfort zone, but it helped a lot with becoming more familiar with Blender, and I did learn a few new tricks :)
