Anyone have a strong opinion on which Roblox material looks better on the below gravestones I made on Blender? Only my second mesh I’ve made, sidenote that there is a part stuffed in the “Grave” engraving to help with the visibility of the text.
Example of several of both types with their surroundings (left concrete, right slate). In this photo, the plate inside the mesh to help see the text is material>Concrete.
I might have been able to make my own texture, but honestly I’m not sure if UVUnwrapping on blender and slapping down some nodes and such would actually result in something applicable to Roblox.
The vote seems quite even, but Slate is the victor (right side of comparison picture). I quite liked the thought of displaying age in the level, slate being the better choice for that.
There isn’t really a style, It’s just a gravestone. The game has maps that swap out, the gravestone will end up on grass near a dirt bump to make it look better, but the atmosphere likely wont be ‘spooky’. Also there should be several, might even have a boss enemy type use it.
First one, very smooth and clean looking. Slate is used for more rough and ragged objects in my opinion.
Also I don’t think graves literally just have the word “grave” on it, lol
I like the slate gravestone, but when you took the comparison picture, the concrete gravestone looked more appealing. I guess it’s because it’s more simple?
Whatever you choose is fine by me. (but I suggest using the concrete for bulk gravestone purposes)
Personally, the second. But neither are really that suited… you should try to add your own texture. The grave letters is a cool touch but you should add names because having “GRAVE” on it is a little redundant and odd. It’s also a bit hard to see the engraved words so you could put a thin block where grave is engraved into and make the block lighter/darker so it’s easier to read
I chose grave on purpose since there isn’t intended to be anyone at the grave. I do have a hidden part of different color within the engraving to help see, I just haven’t decided if I want to engraving very easy to see, or moderately.
I did like concrete due to the clearness but since I didn’t spend time adding cracks into the gravestone/tombstone (probably a difference?) I do like the idea of slate to signify age.
