Mystical Snowy Temple Landscape (CLOSED) (CLOSED)

So this is my second entry and 
This artwork portrays a serene snowy landscape featuring an ancient temple complex surrounded by nature, with a glowing sacred tree and a magical pool of water at the center. The scene aims to evoke a sense of spirituality and wonder, blending architectural elements with the beauty of a pristine winter environment.
for this first I want to make a model of a temple so i started modelling the components of the temple one by one 

and then i combined all the components to make the temple


then i added the landscapes trees and magical waterpool (that could heal you if you take a bath in it )


then i modeled the vimana (ancient indian aircraft )

also to add some depth and realism i modeled a simple cave 

and also i added a wanderer (he is a old aged scholar monk )

i made a sacred symbol of sri yantra in inkscape which represents the harmonization of energy throughout creation

and then i imported the svg file of this design and made it a mesh and extruded and solidify it to make it a 3d object 

and after adding some fauna to the landscape this is how the scene looks from the camera 


and now the texturing first i will explain how i textured the landscape ,so for that if you see some reference images

so for the rock material i have used a pbr texture and then i procedurally added the micro ice patches 

so this how it looks after rendered viewport

pretty realistic
and for remaining things also i have used pbr textures
for the magical pond water i have  set the transmission weight to 1 and roughness to zero 

if you see the ior i set is 1.33 ( IOR stands for index of refraction / refractive index ) for water it is 1.33 (it is Always a constant value )

I provided such detailed explanations because I believe this is an excellent platform and community. I hope that anyone who comes across this in the future can learn something valuable and perhaps even offer suggestions for further improvement.

i planned to use particle system for the snow particle and the glowing particle but my laptop was getting hanged and it was really hard to work so i added an overlay for the snow particle  and glowing particle 
this is the final render

THUMBNAIL :

Beautiful scaled spiritual scene, the size of the monk shows just how awe inspiring those temples would be to approach.

The tree on the left is lit up as if it has some magical property's, I like how you put a carving of the Sri Yantra symbol on it. Which matches the one on the temple.

That healing pool looks awesome the way it is lit up, as if a shining light emanates from below.

All the textures and snow, ice, rocks Fauna blend beautifully together. 

Vimana I gotta look that one up. You can see them floating above the temples, very cool. 

The trees on the side give it more depth which is well done. And the temples bring a sense of wonder looking at them.

Fantastic work, you can see the effort put into it. Everything blends harmoniously
