Mural Chruch

Maya Still-Frame Render, 2023


Inspired by a painting by Aliya Chen, I recreated the scene in 3D using Maya, aiming for a stylized aesthetic. The scene features the church's architecture, murals, and lighting to capture the essence of the original artwork.

Scene Overview

Research and Analysis

Before working on the scene, I analyzed the perspective of the composition and direction of the light. Moreover, since most of the structures are modular inside the church, I categorized them into different parts and model them separately.

Progress

Based on the concept art, I began box modeling the scene using modular parts. I then adjusted the camera to ensure the angle was accurate. Next, I tested the lighting to create a soft afternoon sunlight effect, spilling down towards the upper left corner.

I created the mural drawings based on the original concept art and modeled the figures using Daz 3D and ZBrush.

After the texturing the scenes, I did post-processing to adjust the colors and enhance the overall atmosphere.
