Neptune fountain
Hello folks,
If you like my work, don’t forget to rate and feel free to comment, your feedbacks are very important to me.
Here for you a new fountain to beautify your plazas, old town squares, parks, market places or gardens … enjoy it.
Neptune is the god of freshwater, the sea and protector the fishermans, boatmans and horses in the Roman mythology. He is the counterpart of the Greek god Poseidon. In the Greek-influenced tradition, Neptune is the brother of Jupiter and Pluto; the brothers preside over the realms of Heaven, the earthly world, and the Underworld. Salacia is his wife.
The original fountain with Neptune is in Gliwice, Poland. In the western part of the market square in Gliwice, listed in the register of movable monuments of the Silesian Voivodeship. It was built in 1794 by Johannes Nitsche, a Baroque sculptor from Opava. The sculpture shows Neptune on a dolphin. It is made of sandstone. The fountain stands on a pedestal inside a square bassin. In the second half of the nineteenth century the fountain became a favorite feature of the Gliwice landscape and was nicknamed "Jerzy with a pitchfork".
I optimized as usual the statue to lower the amount of tris for a reasonable amount to make it easy for the game. I totally modeled the base and the bassin.
Credit goes to PiotrF that blessed us with this scan of the statue in Sketchfab.
Special thanks to Raccoon for his habitual kindness and help.
You can search for it in findit mod by "Neptune" or "fountain".
Many more coming soon so stay tuned.
