market
It’s been a very long time since I last released a new work. Over the past three years, I’ve been stuck doing tedious work at the company. Now, I’ve finally found some time to create a piece of my own. Starting from the most basic design, I blended Eastern architecture with some industrial elements to make it look like something from the early stages of industrial development in the last century. I think this combination feels more authentic for that era, rather than just slapping a bunch of “high-tech” stuff onto Eastern architecture. I might tweak it more later, but for now, it looks like this. I’d like to take a break.
The market in the city, where things people need are sold.
First, I collected some elements from the Art Deco period to make traditional Eastern architecture stand out.
To quickly render sketch ideas, I found some existing real photos and modified them directly.
Created in 3D software, these are some iterative process images. In fact, I rendered hundreds of such iterations, mainly to refine the composition, lighting, and how the buildings connect to make them appear more cohesive.
