St Brigid's Cemetery

St Brigid's Cemetery is a stylised retro environment that explores the intersection between nostalgic PS1/PS2-era aesthetics and contemporary 3D techniques.
The project employs an unconventional texturing workflow that inverts traditional baking practices. The use of high-to-low poly baking is not to add realism, but to achieve precise stylistic control. Custom tilesets were created from photographic sources and paired with browser-generated normal maps, allowing for a cohesive blend of hand-crafted base textures and procedural depth.
Terrain construction utilised Sprytile's grid-based UV system combined with sculptural refinement, while props balance geometric simplicity with baked surface detail. The result sits deliberately between stylised and realistic, drawing from titles like Silent Hill 3 and Zelda: Ocarina of Time while maintaining its own visual identity.
