This is my view of a destroyed world, and I called it Kingpoby's ruins. It was done for a 3D school project.

Everything is modeled low-poly because I had to make an environment that would in theory work in a 3D game.

I used normal map to bake high-resolution objects onto low-resolution objects. That way I was able to save on polygons.

So the final scene counts 265 000 triangles, that makes 135 000 polygons.

I can't really explain the initial inspiration of my image, but an idea came to me one night while I was trying to fall asleep. Therefore, the very first drawing was totally rushed out but it already looked like some kind of an abstract sci-fi version of an energy core/foundry.

I used both Scanline renderer's standard lights and Mental Ray's final gather. More precisely, instead of doing a single render, that would take forever to compute, I chose to render several passes separately so I could then easily and quickly composite them in Photoshop.

The modeling was done in 3ds Max and the textures were done in Photoshop. I must say, modeling the wires was a lot of fun.

My goal was to make an organic environment and something different than what I am used to do.

The trees and the ground were modeled in Zbrush, everything else was done in 3dsmax.
