Mountains

Some lovely scenery. I grew up around mountains, so it took me back looking up references and when working on the lighting. They really are incredible. The amount of detail I was working on for this shot was interesting. Every time I went a layer deeper with the detail I was surprised at how much of a difference it made. I was on the verge of extending the project and adding in some particle system rocks and foliage. I would have gone through with it if I wasn’t so busy already. It was a great thing to do in my little bits of downtime and I picked up a bit of insight into using references and making composite references that I think will be valuable moving forward.
