After a couple of decision fatigues, I finally decided to go for it and join Andrew Price's Blender Guru competition, for the first time! The theme for this month is 'Christmas.' I originally opt for a linear merry- and warm-themed concept, but somehow the thought of a Christmas spent in desolation and longing suddenly struck me. I am, for one, not promoting sad emotions, but instead I want to share with everybody the feeling of sadness, longing, apathy, anticipation, joy, hope, and eventually blissful happiness.
On the other hand, this was one of the most technically challenging pieces I have ever worked on, specifically on the modeling and lighting aspects.
