Final Project 1

So this is an ongoing project. For this first project I've made the base of the church, the architecture of the windows, and one of the window designs. I’m going to go through and construct all of the windows, their normals, and their alphas. The windows were made from meshes turned into Bézier curves inspired by Gothic church architecture. The glass panes are a glass material made from mixed BDSF and glass shaders. The marble is iffy; I think I’m going to change that in the next project because I don’t like how its UV mapping onto the geometry. One big question that I have is if the church should be Christian-esque. The reason it could be interesting would be to propose the idea of feminism in Christianity. But also, I’m not sure if I want to separate the concepts. The basic idea is celebrating liberated femininity free from traditional scrutiny. That part is going to be a bit difficult because what exactly is femininity? Is it the freedom to choose what it means for you? So far, I like the idea of free sexual expression, nudity without the male gaze, and personal liberties like work or education.
