Hi #hive @onchainart ! , Creating a quick artwork before the weekend hits so why not, Since Friday's are always lazy and no one feels like doing any work, So ima just kick back and grab a beer and start creating :)

Been a while for me since creating something stylized with a happy vibes, Doing a lot of VFX works tend to make me lean towards dramatic / realistic look, So working on this piece was fun reminds me of my starting days in the CGI world

I decided to go through with a warm day sunlight for more rich look, Giving happy vibes when seeing the image .

Breakdown

Model

Modeling done by ( Jeremy Vickery ) , As working on stylized style, Usually details not needed as you can cover up with colors so as you see Jeremy kept it simple and neat, Textures and lights play the main role for the overall look, As long as all colors blend in together in a dreamy way.

Texture and Lights

I kept colors to the minimum, A mix between warm colors mixed with green and blur, I added a bit of details to the wood texture, Few lines to help give shape to the objects .

For the grass and flowers i used Maya Paint FX, A great tool to create vegetations in case you are not familiar with other software.

Ambient Occlusion

Out of all render passed i used the AO pass to give me more contrast shadows for the final look, Adding this layer as multiply in photoshop for help add nice details for shadows, After that you can add few filters in case you dont need black shadows, Or sharp ones, So i recommend adding bit of blur or make the shadows a bit blue ish
