Summary
The Wizard’s Tower is an iconic location featured outside of Pelican Town, and oneStardew Valleyfan has given it an impressive makeover in Blender. WhileStardew Valleyis presented in a charming pixelated 2D style, this recent Blender creation imagines what the in-game tower would look like with a more realistic appearance.
Featuring an eye-catching design, it is no surprise the Wizard’s Tower has become a popular subject for fan art over the years. Ever sinceStardew Valleywasreleased in 2016, the game’s dedicated community has flooded the internet with impressive recreations of popular in-game locations and characters. For example, theWizard’s Tower was previously reimagined as a cross-stitchby another talented fan. However, this new Blender creation shows fans the potential of a 3D version of Pelican Town and the surrounding area.
The 3D Wizard’s Tower artwork was showcased in a Reddit post by a user known as ophi_chus. The image created using Blender, a computer graphics software toolset, showed the tower nestled among a group of trees next to a lake with a dock. The sky had an orangish hue as the sun was setting, and the creator even included fireflies next to the lake while birds flew overhead.
In addition to the overall composition of the piece, the player skillfully replicated the design of theWizard’s Tower fromStardew Valley, making it recognizable to fans. The important details seen in the pixel art style were transferred over to 3D, such as the weathervane on top of the cone roof along with the ivy-covered walls. As a nice touch, ophi_chus even added a green glow emanating from the windows of the building, giving it a somewhat spooky appearance.
This new fan art provides gamers with a glimpse of what the game might have looked like in a 3D environment. Even though the actual game’s classic pixel art style is charming, this Wizard’s Tower made in Blender suggests a more realistic version could have been stunning. Furthermore, it is worth pointing out that this is not the only 3D recreation of one of the buildings from the game. Others have tried their hand at the concept, with another gamer previously remaking theGeneral Store and Clinic fromStardew Valleyin Blenderwith equally impressive results.
WhileStardew Valleymight not receive a 3D remake, its creator, ConcernedApe, has been busy working on new content for the game. WithStardew ValleyUpdate 1.6 in development, players will soon have new things to check out in the game. Despite not every detail in the update being revealed, players like ophi_chus could soon have even more content to use for the basis of fan art.
