This is another image created during my free time...
The character is a slightly modified version of the one i had posted early(turntable)and the BG was taken from one of my previous works.
As usual all the basic modelling was done in maya, detailing and texturing in zbrush and photoshop.
Rendered using Mentalray in maya and composited in Adobe AfterFX.

Another try at outdoor lighting...
The 3d elements were made in maya and the textures made in photoshop. The background image is a photograph downloaded from the internet using google image search.
The final image was composited in AfterFx using images rendered using mentalray in maya.

Nataraja

This is my work in progress.
Nataraja has always been something i wanted to model.
Nataraja (literally. The Lord (or King) of Dance, is a depiction of the Hindu god Shiva as the cosmic dancer who performs his divine dance to destroy a weary universe and make preparations for god Brahma to start the process of creation. Nataraja is most often depicted through a statue. The sculpture is usually made in bronze, with Shiva dancing in an aureole of flames, lifting his left leg (and in rare cases, the right leg) and balancing over a demon or dwarf (Apasmara) who symbolizes ignorance. It is a well known sculptural symbol in India and popularly used as a symbol of Indian culture. This project will be a personal challenge for me and i pray to the lord to help me through it.
