I thought it could be good idea to use people with nature …so anima’s good quality characters helped me to make the scene more realistic…
Corfu Town – Final Entry
Well, that was one hell of a mission – and a fun one at that… Starting Saturday just gone, I have literally worked on this every hour I could spare until now… even working into the early hours to get it finished… and now I can finally call it FINISHED – woop woop 🙂
This whole scene was created to try and convey the chaotic beauty and friendly atmosphere contained within the back streets of Corfu. With people shopping, drinking and enjoying the beautiful and historic architecture that Corfu has to offer….. all down a narrow street 🙂
Anyway – I hope you like the final outcome. The whole scene ‘pretty much’ has been modeled, textured and rendered by myself using photos that I had taken (after a recent trip to Corfu) as reference and inspiration. I used a couple of Evermotion and VIZ PEOPLE models (clothes racks & some furniture etc) in the process – adapting some of them in places.
Anima is a great fun and easy to use piece of software – the ability to go back into Anima, reload the background model, make tweaks to character positions and then just ‘reload’ the scenes in Max made the whole workflow a joy. Also the random, texture thingy on the characters is great… must have used the same character at least 6 times +….. see if you can tell 😉
The final image was rendered in Vray and then post done in Photoshop & Lightroom.
I hope you like my Final entry! 🙂 and I wish all other entrants the best of luck!

Lost in the Crowd
I started out by blocking the scene and finalized the camera. Then the entire scene was populated and modeled based on that view. The characters were placed in the scene every now and then to check how the entire scene is highlighting them. The entire scene was created from scratch for this competition. Am attaching some of the WIP series below. All the very best to all the contestants, see you all on the other side. 😉

Crowded Highrise Skybar
A very Crowded Skybar in a highrise building in the Netherlands. I already finished a version of this image earlier, but completely redid the lighting setup and placed a lot more AXYZ characters with the help of the anima plugin.
Nitesh Soho
Nitesh Soho, A commercial destination of the future, Many concepts were made, many sketches were done and finally the design was finalised and Architecture was designed by Bose International Planning & Architecture.
All 3D done by me a per the design was finalized.
I used Vray for rendering and Forest pack for some small grass regions, also placing the people in 3D is one of the toughest job to do, but thanks to Anima, The plugin is simple amazing This is the first time i tried it and i would say it can really bring a valuable asset to your renderings making them more alive & appealing.
At last post production in Photoshop CC.
Hope you like it.
Thanks
