Just got little bit more motivated about setting up Night Lights for the scene with whole sky lit with stars.
I like to watch sky at night, the only thing that never changed much with time. Same old still breathtaking.
However, the days gone game is all lights out in night as for apocalyptic but i wanted to light it up like there is some feast or event is happening like happens in a community.
As an indian, our cultural roots are defined by lights and colors, just like china, japan, Indonesia, malaysia, cambodia and other asian countries. It's part of soul. We don't only live in light but light live in us.
So i setup the scene with the lighting i had in mind and lit the path with bike's light smiling_face
Being a biker that's a privilege, light the path and make scenes look good haha smiling_face
Assets used: Well this time i used some resources from polyhaven.com, it's one of my fav and oldest free resources available website. High Quality Assets i used like Boxes, Water Can.
Transmission lines, Birds i have downloaded from free3d.com back in the day. I like to observe them doing mischievous stuff haha.
But they do add their significance to the whole scene.
Grass, Trees, Small house, all assets created by me. I wanted to use Pine trees first as they were completely similar to the game's aesthetics and composition. But i had something else in mind with my own version of scene. But i also love the pine version so much.
So i switched with different look of trees as well as for mountain in the background.
Mountain is created entirely in blender by me. I like to use quadspinner gaea though but unable to use it anymore because i switched to linux few years ago. So i got my own techniques to create mountains in blender for environment scenes. Like anything can stop to get what i want.
Scene Created in Blender 4.2.7. Rendered in Cycles Rendering Engine. Compositing done in GIMP.
