Some experimentation in Blender that way overboard. The final render time ended up being 13 and a half hours. I wanted to add more detail to the scene and clean a few things up, but my computer simply couldn’t handle any more. Oh well, I’m not entirely unhappy with the result.
Made in Blender with some touching up in Photoshop!
this is really cool! i love how it’s telling a story and building a world with just one image
