The Archives

Concept art of an ancient city that functions as a huge archive.
This concept was inspired by the ancient temples of Angkor in Cambodia as well as the landscape of Zhangjiajie in China.
I wanted to challenge myself to work in a larger scale as well as with a more refined 3D base. I also finally got into sculpting and created my first organic model. This workflow worked very well for me and I will continue to explore larger scale paintings :)
All materials as well as 3D models of the cliffs are from Quixel Megascans, all other parts are completely done by myself.
