Senior Port and Stuff-Part1: Sketches

So I've been working nonstop to create a demonic gothic cathedral and this is what I've model so far. These are the sketches behind everything that i'm modeling. All of them are inspired in Gothic architecture just stylizing parts to be more of a crazy satanic sect (I'm not a Satanic...). 

First, I had to think of a demon to do the sect after so i had to do my reasearch and ended up stumbling with Abaddon who is the demon of war and the dead. It really helped me to pick my aesthetic choices. So I went with skeletons and horns. basic, but very primal and epic.

Sects and demons tend to have their own Logo or Symbol, so I used a couple of existent ones and the face of the demon that I chose to do the sect after.

Next, the pew. I know there isn't change in the silhouette, but my teacher liked it so i went with it and did tons of ideations with what I had.

That's when the pillars came to be. They had so much detail but i still couldn't go extreme with detail because the main piece is the altar, so I had to go back and forth to find some balance.

 

Last but not least, the most epic piece of my setting, the Altar piece. I did a bunch of ideations of the altar and even had some friends telling me which one they liked so that I could start modeling it. I'll post the images later.
