Fairytale Illustration Final

4 loves
To practice environment building I wanted to take a reference of some of the classic fairytale illustrations and try to recreate the mood in Blender. I took John Bauers classic illustration "Princess Tuvstarr gazing down into the dark waters of the forest tarn" and started working. Quickly I realized that to get the mood I have to make my own interpretation of the painting since I am working on different medium. It was a fun process where I got to sculpt, use photogrammetry objects, and use Botaniq assets to composite the image. This also taught me a lot about lighting which I am always making too dark. Hopefully this is moody yet bright enough to see. I also wanted to change the character in the picture. The forest I had created reminded me of the film Princess Mononoke so the forest spirit as a character was a clear choice.
