Prosperity Park
Koi fish are known to represent wealth, success, and tenacity so after adding them to the fountain I thought prosperity was the perfect name for this park! I was inspired to make a weathered looking structure at the beginning of the semester. Making this fountain look decayed and eroded by nature gave me the perfect opportunity to grow my skills in Maya and Substance Painter.

Initial sketches and possible fountain placement ideas
Originally I wanted to make a whole scene where the fountain was not necessarily the main focus, however as time went on I realized that it would be better to focus solely on the fountain.

Post Mortem
- Became very skilled in Substance Painter after being vaguely familiar with the program
- Learned valuable time management skills
- Learned about the various capabilities Sketchfab has
- Plan changed over the semester and some elements were left out as the scope was lowered
- Will use the workflow between Maya and Substance Painter for future projects
Thank you!
