3-D Models > Statue of Liberty

Objective:
  • Create a low-polygon statue of Liberty for the game NeverWinter Nights as a personal project.
Analysis:
  • The statue is based on several photograps I found on the internet.
  • In order to save time, the statue's face and arms were exported from Neverwinter Nights. I modeled everything else in Rhino 3D.
  • The statue was not an attempt to create a realistic model of the Statue of Liberty since game models are so low-poly that they only vaguely resemble the thing they are meant to represent.
  • The statue's robe was created by "draping" a deformed plane over her shoulders and torso and the model contains only the torso as the rest of her is buried in ice and would not be seen in the game (thus eliminating many polygons).
