Awe at Thistledown
Lightwave 3D, Maya, mental ray, Photoshop
April 2007

Hello everyone.
This was my entry for the recent EON challenge. I wanted to show Patricia awe struck by the spectacular view of Thistledown. The image won 5th place in the Model category which was a total surprise for me.

I used mostly Maya for everything with the exception of Patricia which I modeled and UV unwrapped in LightWave Modeler. I then brough this model into Maya where I created a quick skeleton to be able to pose her, applied materials and rendered in several layers using Mental Ray. The final elements were composed in Photoshop.

the WIP thread is here if interested to see its development, there are closer images of the character as well.
