Description: Just wanted to create a classic game prop. The intent was to go for a very low poly prop (this barrel was partially inspired by Doom 3). I used a Laser Warning Sign just to make things unique, even if it doesn't make sense.
My workflow consisted of creating a high poly model for the Normal map and texturing the other maps in Photoshop. I also used the Diffuse map to create another normal map, using Crazybump, for the fine details like scratches. I later combined the two normal maps into the one below.

Here is the high poly model that I used for the Normal Map. The low poly model is not shown, because it's just a simple cylinder.
