I've started to carve the front chair legs out of balsa wood. Here's the prgress so far...

I've made three different mood boards for the set so I guess it's best I talk through each of them in turn:

This mood board is simply imagery, colours and a tone for what I imagine the library to encompass; its art direction.

I wanted to make a collection of images that contained interesting and unusual shapes in buildings, whether these be photographs, models or drawings. At this current stage I imagine the Librarian himself to be a rather warped and twisted figure so I would like the library to be inkeeping with this and contain bold and striking shapes.

I really want the library to look like a real tactile and textured world, almost like the viewer could reach out and touch the screen and imagine feeling the world that the Librarian resides in. This is a mood board for textures that I like and will try to transfer into my set.
