This scene came to mind on a trip to the Mediterranean a while ago. I wanted to create the detail and complexity of the architecture and the fresh
feeling of the ocean an landscape. I was planning to take this oportunity to learn new software for future projects in our studio. So I decided to
start improving my skills in World Creator, Quixel and Phoenix for the folowing months to come. Most of the views are big landscapes, but wanted
to provide them with as much detail as possible. In most cases I would prefer to mattepaint a lot of these details, but in this case my thought was to
approach it mostly in 3D, my main reason being that I wanted to test out these software programs.

Building was done in 3Ds max, and the rest was done by Matte painting.

Wanted to create an large area with as much 3D elements as possible using Forest Pack and 3D scanned objects. I also wanted to explore how depth changes in different lighting and weather setups.

At the end I painted some more elements and depth to finish it off.

This personal project was created to learn more about Corona Lighting and Texturing. As much a I enjoy Photoshop, I tried not to use it to much in Post and rather use the Tone mapping feature in Corona to to get the lighting the way I wanted it. I also ventured into different lighting setups for this scene in order to try new techniques, such as Sun & Sky vs HDRI. I created some Textures in Photoshop such some of the wood and Paint. I then combined the Layered material in Corona with the Composite Map to create dirt and similar effects on the Textures. Hope you guys have some comments & suggestions.
