“No one knows who built these structures of stone or what they were used for. The Wise Ones tell stories of an ancient civilization that vanished from the face of the earth…”
My contribution to the CG Boost “Power of Nature” challenge. I wanted to show the power of nature that works over long periods of time. What would it look like, if we were long forgotten…? I especially enjoyed sculpting the different stone assets and make them look old and eroded.
Most of the fine details are not really visible in the final picture, but the exercise was a lot of fun And I learned a lot about creating more complex shader node trees. Using render passes for compositing in Photoshop was a cool new experience too!
Feedback is very welcome!
