Apoligy and Update!

Man, am I lazy these days! Sorry for me not updating this blog recently, but I didn't have anything to show recently. For some reason I had a thing called "creativity crisis", which means my recent workflows were like: got an idea > looked for reference pictures > started modelling > got bored of it > quit finishing it. Yea, it sucks hard.

But today I had a pretty hard headache for no reason, and got the next few days off. During some effort of forgetting that my head is about to blow into a million pieces, I was reading some history pages about the city I'm living next to (Szeged). (You might ask, why I was reading when I had a headache - well, I tried everything, and the subject got my attention so hard, that it worked.) I found out that the city's cathedral (pic.1) was built in the place of another church, which sadly was demolished.

Pic.1 - The Cathedral of Szeged

This church was called Dömötör-templom (Church of St. Demetrius) (pic.2 far left) which - as I said - is now gone. The only part which you can still see is the remains of the tower, which was found during the demolishion. It turned out, that this tower was actually built in the XIII. century, and it is now called as Dömötör-torony (Demetrius-tower) (pic.1 on the left) after the church.

Pic.2 - The Church of St. Demetrius and the Chapel of Rosalia

During this little historical trivia, I came to the conclusion that I probably am going to make a 3d model of the old church. It's an interesting challenge, for it being a real architectural piece, but sort of a reconstruction. 
Not only that, but I'm going to post my workflow of the process, and going to show you some tips.

Stay tuned for more!
