The Menu: Smokehouse build (my first go at building)

Hey guys,

I was recently mesmerised by the builds of cafune7, and I wanted to try and have a proper first go at building something. I was interested in the architecture and atmosphere of The Menu; something about the modern and yet rigid structure of the Restaurant coupled with a Scandinavian winter-ish backdrop enticed me to try and recreate at least one structure from the movie into the Studio.

Here’s what I’ve come up with!

Some notes after I finished: A long way to go - I messed up the height/dimensions on the start as towards the end of the build it seemed short and chubby - much like a triangle cabin rather than something ominous-looking. I spent way too long on the door patterns, too. I think the landscape for the back was kind of rushed.

I wanted to ask some of your creators for your feedback on this build; I’d particularly like some help with textures because I didn’t really like the Roblox preset ones, if someone has a nice texture for the dirt and for the planks of the Smokehouse, please tell me where I can find it! If possible, as well, I would love some tips and tricks for doing complex designs like spirals, wreaths, etc.

Thanks!

also the trees in the back were free models from the toolbox.
