3D ENVIRONMENT ART — Withered Path

A stylized environment study inspired by traditional ink wash landscape painting and sparse desert scenery. This project explores toon shading, ramp-based materials, and a flatter, more graphic rendering style focused on shape, silhouette, and composition.

Created as part of a fast-paced environment look development study, the scene focuses on atmosphere, composition, and visual storytelling from concept to final lighting and render.
