Originally a midterm project, wasn't really happy with the original animation and wanted to try a night version as well, so... here's another Myst-ical scene. That Maglev/Bathysphere rip off has to be my most used prop by now ;)

This scene has seen some action: Originally modelled in Maya/zBrush and rendered with Vray. Then converted to Arnold for practicing, then imported into C4D and adapted for the night version, finally rendered with Corona. Next up: Physical Renderer? Clarisse? Povray? ;)
