Eternity Cube

Description

From my close friend's role-play story for her 'The Secret World' guild: [link]

"The Eternity Cube prop is an elegantly carved piece of stone with a pattern grooved into it, running across the entire surface of the cube, along one face after another. It's unusually cold to the touch. I figure it's just the nature of whatever stone it's made of."



As I was developing the design of this model, I was debating whether I wanted to do a simple texture map, or go for full physical detailing. It didn't take long before I decided to go along with the physical detail and started cutting out different pictographs in Mayan, Aztec, Egyptian, and other ancient petroglyphs. While I was detailing the surface, the "winding path" grooved pattern of the cube seemed out of place. So I stuck in dozens of pieces that show the changing phases of the moon, from full to new moon, and back again.

This model was used as a reference for a mock comic book cover!

May I please use one of your lovely cubes in a jungle scene? I'll clearly credit your dA profile. :)
