I Just Don't Care Cyberpunk street scene
3D Render by MarceloCaseThis art I published for The Art of Light Render Contest, on @renderhub3d
I decided to focus on the cyberpunk aesthetic. I didn't want to go for the obvious look that my characters generally inhabit, full of cybernetics or with dangerous or mysterious gazes. I wanted to take on the challenge of this contest by creating an aesthetic of real urban lighting inspired by the neon-filled and illuminated signs of Asian streets, which are indeed the inspiration for the cyberpunk future. I used a technique I recently learned to create depth and realism by using two images of streets collected from the internet to light the character. One image was used in the background for street depth, and another, the same image but resized and angled, was used to reflect in her glasses. I collected a street scan to reflect lights rather than appear as a scene object. The biggest challenge was generating the supporting lights to provide natural illumination while simultaneously highlighting the character from the background.
I hope you appreciate it!

Fri, Jun 07, 2024Thank you, Hexyoz! I really enjoy creating natural lighting with a cinematic layer and a photographic street light style. There’s an artist named Teemu who takes insane photographs of Tokyo, and I find myself increasingly inclined to incorporate his style into my cyberpunk work. Check out his documentary on YouTube called Street Photography in Tokyo - The Story Behind My Favorite Shot. The realistic and raw nighttime lighting in Tokyo is truly inspiring.
Regarding the model, she is a character I developed for a novel I’m writing and illustrating. I prefer women with natural bodies that look real, with poses that show personality and a beauty that lies in the mystery of their body language.
I recently saw your work and was very impressed by the treatment of your images. Both the composition and the lighting, as well as the choice of colors, are fantastic. Congratulations!
Once again, thank you for the compliment!

Fri, Jun 07, 2024Thank you, Arodia! I love creating details in areas that need attention and keeping things softer where they are just outlines to guide the viewer's eyes to the heart of the story. Thank you once again!
