This is still a work in progress, but I feel the majority of it is complete. I still would like to model a number of assets to add more detail to the terrain and nest, as well as some final details to the dragon.

Good greenish color tones. Was that triangular glowing cone section in the first render part of dragon's tail at the center.
Looking to the right, my eyes fooled me as if it was a manta ray with mossy feel and the balloon art type of aggressor was unique : D Wish you best.

Wed, Feb 21, 2024Thanks... the balloon art is the blocking technique I start with. I do need to rework to make it more communicative with normies. And I also have to add in the aggressor again to cue in the audience so they know what they are looking at. The egg thief is more of a wheres Waldo thing, a surprise when you find it.

Wed, Feb 21, 2024Great to find some easter eggs in the picture whilst there's is a larger egg coming after that guy from the stairs too : D
That lushful green makes you wanna take a trip to the forest.
I think your normal map looks good. Might be a good idea to include a wireframe or grey shaded image in your wip just in case, or the normal
map would serve this purpose too. Nice to see your progress as you go along. Have a nice day.

Current state of affairs. I pulled back the texturing on the model as it was taking away from the form muddying up the sculpt. As well I changed the palette to increase the colour contrast to make the objects more visible, namely the dragon. The camera's sensor was increased and shifted to create the new composition without moving the camera as the sculpt is one sided.

Fri, Feb 23, 2024This one looks neat and organized, as you made the hills more visible. I admired your hardwork of process. Have a good weekend.

1 - This must be the natural scene before the apocalypse : D

Fri, Mar 08, 2024Looks like you've created more cool stuff as you go along : D Good vibrant colors. The picture below my comment would've made a good gif or video animation VR or a panoramic view would you think, jmho. Have a great weekend and nice to see your progress.

Fri, Mar 08, 2024I do not know quite how to edit the exif data to make it pop up in your browser to view as a 360 image, but if you have a viewer, my VR did, it just takes equirectangular images, 2 by 1 in resolution and suddenly you are standing under a dragon.

Fri, Mar 08, 2024I was able to see these in VR in the tablet. I think I'll go for the tablet lying on the bookshelf for some time now to make
'The Egg Thief' happy : D.

That feels better.
