Cozy Stylized Bakery

A small stylized bakery, created as a personal project to explore warm, hand-painted textures and whimsical architecture. I wanted to capture the feeling of a cozy village shop where fresh bread is always baking. Complete with some stylized fire and smoke.

I'm not sure if these loaves will earn star baker, but hopefully they'll get us through bread week!

The workflow included:

Concept: Based on Adrian Sanchez Alban's concept

Sculpt: High-poly sculpted in ZBrush
Modeling: Modeled in Maya
Textures: Hand-painted textures in Substance Painter
Render: Real-time in Unreal Engine 5

I focused on bold shapes, exaggerated proportions, and a soft painterly style to give it a storybook feel. Everything you see I created, including the vfx. No AI.
