Texture: Medieval Bucket - PBR & Stylized

A simple bucket can speak a thousand words through a quality texture that tells a story. I aimed to achieve this ideal through my PBR and Stylized workflows. I began by creating a high poly sculpt that presented the weathered history of this object, both in its creation, its use, and any accidents that may have befallen it. I imagined the craftsman choosing a fine elven wood to be bound by a cheap but effective metal, hammered into a robust design to ensure the retention of the contents within. After loving use and a few too many late nights, this bucket remains a testament to the rustic medieval world it represents- damaged, but sturdy. Battered, but unbroken.
