Another environment. This was a really great set to work on. There's all sorts of challenging models to make in this set. My reference is from a really nice book, Daily Life in Holland in the year 1566. It's one hell of a mouthful, but this artist, Rien Poortvliet is easily one of my favourite artist. The majority of the set is made in Maya, with the exception of some organic elements. Most of the cloth pieces are ncloth and sculpted. Only exception is that folded up bed cover piece. That's sculpted. Bricks are displacement maps, sculpted in zbrush.
Here are some comparison renders with the ref material:

The model I'm most happy with in this set is the willow weave basket. Not so much the model itself, but the problem solving I used to get to the model. Everything just kind of fell into the right place with this one. It took me a weekend to make. No alpha maps, I created a tile-able section of the weave pattern on the basket, duplicated it a bunch of times and then used a bend deformer to wrap it in a circle, finally using a lattice deformer to squish it a bit.
Here's a screen grab of the picture frame, because it's a mess in the overlay as well
