Hi every body:
My conception is to create a Europe architecture by myself--A Baroque ballroom with skylight. An old gentleman invites a little girl to dance,the four sculptures in the near happen to look at them joyfully.It is warm and joyful.
At the beginning, I built a basic 3D stage in order to paint over it and get the right perspective. I painted all the materials with Wacom in Photoshop, including the marble finishings, lights, and all the surrounding decorations.
All materials I painted myself except for the orginal 3D model and the floor texture
I collected references of the old gentleman and the little girl from movies including "The Titanic" and "The Russian Ark". I picked out three different pictures to be the girl's main referencing materials for the angle of the head, facial features and shading. Since there are tones of references, I only use the ones that are close to my representation
In order to truthfly capture the lighting, shading and the wrinkles of the clothes, I have made photographs of real people as a source of reference.
I found the references for the two sculptures in the near distance. The modeller on the side making the hand gesture was myself. These references will be used to combine with the original sculpture, of which should be looking at the two main characters with joy. so I must correct it.
I have changed the hair on the male sculpture in back on the left, as different from the reference.
The references for the four guests were collected from movies as well. The materials of the two women, one with the golden dress on the left and one with the white dress on the left, are quite different, which took me some time to make the research.
The process of this piece of work is a long journey, it took me a few months to complete it.
I hope it is worth it.
