Low Polygon Dargah

I started collecting reference images and I need to show all the details in less polygons, so that I am specially take care while collecting the references

Based on the approximate measurements, I start modeling from top view

For the solid part I created the polygons and added the details in texture

To get the extra details,  I used transparency in textures (instead of modeling), so that I build a face and applied the PNG texture

The same technique is used for Arches and hangings also

Finally I got the transparency in maps

So, the polygon count is reduced too much, here we can observe this in the below picture

Finally in 792 triangles the Dargah model was completed

Thank you for your time _/\_

Welcome to Low Polygon Modeling

As usually we need to start the 3D model, after observation of the reference images based on our requirement, OBSERVATION is the first IMPORTANT thing

I started the modeling by building the base

We are creating the Low-Poly model, and it's not a PBR work flow, so I create the digital version of the brick texture by using Photoshop software

As we already know it's a game ready Low-Poly model, so that we need to create all possible depths in texture only (Instead of Modeling, for saving the polygon count), So I created all possible details in texture in Photoshop software by using, Bevel and Drop-shadow and by using some more options

The model is very HUGE! I know it's not a good process, but I overlap UV's, for saving the UV space and getting the good quality in texture and finally I completed the model to 90%

Here we can observe the polygon count of our model, it's very low

Finally I have completed the remaining pending model and uploaded in SketchFab
