I started with the forge, here is a first preview:
The texture is quite dirty hacked together, I will add some grunge to cover all the seams, when everything else is done. I dont know how to do with the fire, should it be able to get toggled on/off, or always on? I saw in one of the screenshots we have a flame object already, should it be placed inside, or is it better to model a flame? Though I am not sure how to do that so it looks good, but its possible I guess.
Same with water in the tray, I could fake it with a blue rough surface, not sure if the engine provides better options though.
Items can be arranged different very easily, something missing?
edit: 265 faces, used here a 1024x1024 texture... Im wondering if a 512 would do it too.. will try a downscaled version for comparison when its finished.
