The Wormworld Saga tells the story of my painting 'The Journey Begins'.]]> Tue, 28 Dec 2010 12:01:08 +0000 http://digitaldecoy.cgsociety.org/gallery/826104

I painted this image as a page header for my new website. It shows the protagonist from 'The Journey Begins' and 'Traped!' guided by a not yet to be revealed character.

Again I have experimented with the style. This time I tried a more loose, semi-abstract approach especially on organic forms. My goal here is, to find a balance that provides enough visual information for the viewer but also lets room for imagination.

This was my entry to the Uplift Universe CG Challenge.

it's quite an unusual piece for me because it's completely sculpted and rendered in ZBrush. I used Photoshop only for compositing and for the clouds. Since it was a CG Challenge entry, the making of this image is documented in detail in my challenge thread over here:

This image is sort of a successor to my painting "The Journey Begins" as it shows one of the adventures the young boy has to face in the fantastic world which he entered through a magical painting on his grandfathers attic. We see the boy surrounded by goblin pirates who want to bring him to their king's castle.
