The Spellbook

The Spellbook was a small prop project I created after looking through some leather bound book references. It was really fun trying to accurately capture the ways in which leather becomes damaged and aged over time. Adding things like smoothing to show high contact areas as well as creating a brush in Substance painter that could mimic the puckering made by small tears in the material. Lastly making things truly sinister by adding a big old pentagram and runes over top seemed to really solidify the tone I was going for!
