Of course, always happy for people to use my art as wallpapers 😊 I'll probably forget to message you but once I've worked on it a bit more, I'll probably do another post. So if you keep an eye out you can use the finished version

Before I did it the other way round, and I'd start building the scene and model things as I went. The main issues with doing it that way round were that modelling became slower as the scene got more detailed (so eventually I'd give up making new things), and I also ended up modelling a lot more things because I didn't really reuse assets as much.

This may all seem like common sense and it's probably how most people work, but up to now my process was always building staff when I needed it rather than making a load of assets in advance.

Thanks! Post processed in Photoshop but not drastically. A bit of a levels adjustment, some film grain and some colour grading, otherwise it's not too different from the final render

Thank you! 🙏

So actually less than you might think. Maybe 12 hours in total? I was actually trying a different workflow this time which really suited me - I pre-made a lot of assets and then effectively kitbashed my own scene from them. There's a lot of repeated elements which you don't really notice with the lighting, etc (unless you really peak close up)

All made in Blender, rendered with Cycles 😊

My bad, don't think I appreciated the difference.

My point still stands though. Can no entertainment company ever use an R in for their logo without risking the wrath of the T2 legal team? Seems like a ridiculous claim

I can't believe 8 people had the exact same idea for a post at the same time, that's crazy

So the artwork is called "The Heart of the Forest". I was envisioning this heart-like organic plant structure representing some kind of forest deity, hidden in this temple deep in nature. The person there (which funnily enough is a model of me) is on a pilgrimage to visit this forest deity 🙂

I hate ads too, but devs have to eat so why should we not pay them when we use an app or service they spend countless time making and maintaining?

Sync is a one-time payment of £17.99 / $20 to remove ads and for the amount I'll be using this app, I think that's absolutely fair. I'll spend more on one takeaway pizza on a Friday night.

All made using Blender. Hope you like it 😊
