Esoteric Order of Dagon
My latest personal project is a modern remake of the Esoteric Order of Dagon, from the 2005 Call of of Cthulhu Dark Corners of the Earth videogame. I chose to not only redesign and remake all of the architecture, but also to set the scene a few moments after the start of the assault, allowing me to create storytelling opportunities and a more dynamic feel to the frames.
Through this project, I improved my modular approach to detailed and ornemental elements, and I learnt a lot in the process.
The stained glass ceiling had to be redesigned from scratch entirely, and I wanted to use it to color the light of the scene for a more unique and watery lighting.
On top of all the props and textures that I made from scratch, I used Megascan decals and trench military crates. Shelves and some background props such as bottles or frames are from the 1940 Office pack by GrayBite studio. M1 Garand model is by Barracudazp.
Overall this has been a great joy to create and see come together. I hope you enjoyed looking at it.
The laurel leaves are used on the railings and balusters, but also at the bottom of the columns in a square pattern.
This kit is used for the stairs corners, walls and balcony sides.
The Mir Mahdi Ornament kitbash has been a huge timesaver on sculpts such as this one.
I fitted the pants on my sculpt thanks to a clothing template by Rokhsareh Alimardani.
