Reference:
This image brought me inspiration, I refer to some classical illustrations, in the plot the main character is alone in the forest at night to put lanterns. This posed a challenge: how to do a night scene?
You can find a lot of blender tutorials on how to make a summer sunny day, but very few people make a night scene, on the one hand, it’s hard to show the volume of the model at night because of the insufficient light, on the other hand.
The forest
Scenes Design:
Here the characters first time release the lantern . To illuminate the character’s expression in the dimly lit scene at night, I fill in the light on the front of the character.
Final rending:
it’s difficult to match the colours of the night scene, it doesn’t have the rich props such as the blue sky, green grass, clouds and flowers during the daytime, therefore, in order to make a better night scene, I refer to a lot of illustrations from fairy tales, which often have the protagonist walking alone at night in the forest. picture, the moon and the stars are essential, hazy fog light effects and distant mountains, fireflies become the composition of the night scene of several important elements.
Process:
The cave
the tunnel to the monster’s home, with a huge stone statue of the monster as the entrance.
The entrance to the nuo mask maker’s house is a giant stone statue, and the character runs after the lantern into the mouth of the giant stone statue
Final rending:
The gate of the temple often fits the theme of the temple, Lingyin Temple Qingjing in the valley, its gate looks rustic, there is a pine tree inside the symbolism of solitude, independence and fortitude and serenity. In the anime as a monster craftsman of the temple gate, is a stone mask greatly drop open mouth, inspired by the Chinese gate on the door ring, similar to a kind of door god, the duty is to deter thieves, so it all looks ferocious eyes.
temple is a sentiment that is more than just a place to meditate and pray for blessings. temples contain many exotic treasures and pass down all sorts of mysterious legends. A part of them will tell that the temple is hidden in the forest and can only be discovered by those who are destined to arrive.
