I am currently working on my graduation project. I would like to create a series of illustrations based on the novel Les Spectres d'Eiffel by François Fierobe. My process is to use 3D modelisation in my first step so that I can make a paintover as the final render. Here is a first test carried out with Photoshop and Maya to determine the style and the atmosphere that I wish to obtain.
In this illustration for the first chapter of the book, the main protagonist is dreaming of the Eiffel Tower caught in the ice preached at the top of a mountain. During the night, a group of climbers decide to brave the elements to explore the building.
