Today I was working on several different doooors. I wanted the shed doors to be quite similar to the actual shed and be a part of the actual walls, so it was quite hard to came up with the idea of how it should all works to fit perfectly.

I did the walls yesterday and they fit well with the rest of the shed, so this was time for perfectly fitting doors. I only knew that I want them to have double wings and have only one opened. This required some small fitting manipulations (shortening several plans that won’t be as much visible). I also had to came up with an idea for a perfect hinges that would make it looks realistic. I also had to add planks on the top, as there was a huge gap between the walls. This is the final result for the main doors:

Although those doors looks very simple, I was struggling a lot while making these. The most problematic were the lock as the planks had to be cut in different places. Luckily they were just simple rectangles, so it was easier to do, but it still have me some problems.

Another complication came with the actual lock placement. I had to rethink how it works several times before I got it kind of right. Because of that I’ve made a lock separately first, then I’ve added it to the closed doors (which I’ve later used as additional back doors).

As I’ve already mentioned in this post, the most time consuming were the hinges. I was redoing them several times to make it looks realistic, but at the end I believe I’ve managed to do so. I know that they won’t be as much visible in the game (just a bit), but every single small bit adds realism to the game like mine.

Another doors that I was working on today were the internal ones. I’ve decided to block the view to the second room, as now I’m planning to use that space for a bathroom area (every liveable space needs one right?!). I’ve used wall model as a base for it (as it has to connect with that) and added the doors that I’ve made for the other doors (I hope it makes sense).

I decided that I want them to be slightly open, to have a small view on the interior. I’m not planning to model a bathroom, but I may place some other things to block the view of it. I just thought it would make it more obvious that these are doors (as they are mostly gonna have similar textures as the walls).

I was thinking about adding a handle, but resigned on the idea at the end. It would looks kind of weird to have a handle inside a shed (even if it’s a liveable area). The last thing to do to the shed walls would be adding windows, so I’m planning to do so tomorrow.
