ROTTEN HEART — A 3D Artwork

Hello everyone,

Here’s a surrealist, nightmarish 3D artwork I’ve made based on my feelings lately. The goal was to create a particular atmosphere using strong volumetrics, contrasted lighting, and cinematic post-processing, all mixed with Path Tracing rendering and artistry influenced by the work of Masahiro Itō, Zdzisław Beksiński, and the Serial Experiments Lain series.

It has been modeled with Blender, textured with Quixel Mixer, and of course, rendered with Unreal Engine 5.

Hi there @SoulfulCode,

Hope you’re well and having a wonderful week so far :slight_smile:

First of all, this is absolutely stunning. The lighting and emotion creates such a uniquely haunting feeling. Truly beautiful. Secondly, I want a whole short-film about this. :joy: There should definitely be a story made for this!

Hope we get to see more from you and your art around here :slight_smile:
