Bookwyrm is about a small dragon going around collecting magical books and growing their own horde. This is expressed through the setting and the pile of paper and books that is being gathered by the dragon in the corner. I faced many different challanges while making this, most of my own creation. I have now made a custom rig for a dragon and animated using the rig I created. I had never done any 3D animation before so this was quite a struggle and I learned a lot. I also experimented with shaders and particle systems in Unity, something I had never done before. This is the most modeling and texturing I have ever done and it put in perspective how important a clear and consistant art style is. I am quite satisfied with the amount I learned and challanged myself with this project.

You did such a good job filling the space in your environment. And even though a lot of your clutter objects are similar, you were able to vary them in a way that makes them visually interesting. Also, the dragon looks amazing! Everything in your scene is cohesive and works very well.
Your scene looks really filled out and has a consistent style thematically! I really love your character animations, the idle especially feels natural and fluid!
Gotta say, I’m in love with the dragon <3 I think all that work you put into designing and animating it really paid off, because I truely think it turned out extremely charming. I also love the overall style of everything as well, especially that really nice painterly vibe of the wall textures. Great job :]
The dragon turned out really awesome. I love how you were able to get animation working on a non humanoid character. Alll of the texturing and clutter in the environment is really well done too.
I love how whimsical and fantasy it is, especially the dragon. The lightings being not only orange but also having a tint of pink, matching the dragon is a small detail I really love. Wonderful job!
