Hi!
I made this for the Blender Guru competition “What really happened”, it is my first public entry. Thanks Andrew for the competition, I leard a lot
It’s all done in Blender Cycles + Compositor. Render time was about 4 hours at 2000 Samples, CPU only.
Had to write a simple osl shader to smooth the volumetrics for the lightshaft at the open UFO hatch.
As a Blender beginner, suggestions and critics are very welcome. Thanks for looking
