“The Demon in the Stone”
This is a recent work of mine done entirely in unreal engine 4.
This is a story of a demon trapped and imprisoned in a stone in the form of a sword. The only way for the demon to be free is to be wielded by a master swordsman. In the dark, cold solitude the sword awaits its wielder.

a final image of the Boulderbeast in the wild.
Boulder Beast_Mudbox Modelling
This is a creature that I created in Maya and Mudbox. I named it as buolderBeast. It is not my original concept I fond the concept art online, cant find the artist who made it but will find them and credit them for their work. These creatures roam in the dry deserts, they lay idle like rocks during day and are active during night.…

This is the final out put of my project. I have done some composting and color grading in photoshop.
composting process:
I could only render the ship with the corals and I was fortunate to get the godrays with the same image.
I separately rendered the fish, the submersibles lights, the fog and the god rays all individually and brought them in to photoshop.
I laid the Ambient occlusion pass over the master beauty and changed the blend option to “overlay”.
The next was to put on the other layers like the fish, godrays, fog etc one of top the other changed their blending mode to get them in to the scene.
after positioning them in to the scene I started my process of painting shadows of the fish for depth.
The broken mast near the boat came out to be very bright and washed out which corrected with applying a separate ambient occlusion for the mast and painting over it to get a darker greenish tint matching the ship.
The head lights of the sub were very pale with no detail. I added the head light pass I took in maya and painted a bit of light fog into the scene, to give the lights more detail.
I duplicated the master layer, selected the corals alone and deleted the rest of scene. I painted some blue smudged patches to the back of the corals this gave a feel of a mild depth to the coral area in the scene.
Took a few images of bubbles form google and used them as a stamp to paint in some bubbles over the submersible and the ship. initially the bubbles appeared brighter and bluer than the scene so I changed the blend mode to pin light which did the trick.
I found an image of bubbles from a propeller, I changed its shape and orientation and added them to the submersibles propellers to give it life.
I added a water surface image to the scene to complete the underwater feel.
REFLECTION:
Objective:
To make an underwater scene and to light it.
Learning:
During the course of this project I have discovered a whole lot about how to
- make achievable goals
- to set reasonable time frames
- to factor in render time
- to factor in the render error correction
- to handle Maya scene files
- to use different size maps for different objects in the scene.
- the importance of depth of field
- the use of post production and composting
- how to understand a scene and split it into its basic components
- how to construct a scene by sketching it in side view and top view to get a clear concept of the scene.
I wanted to make a video out put of the underwater scene but due to certain errors with the scene rendering was not completed. I could salvage only 85 frames form the batch render. and this itself had consumed a huge chunk of my time, so to balance my work I had to problem solve. I decided to render out a single image render and work on it. I have tried my best to get a video but my maya scene refuses to co operate. I have made a lot of changes to the scene to solve other problems like the empty fore ground. added rocks to the sides to fill the empty space.
- reduced the ships poly count to a minimum.
- cleaned the history of the entire story twice
- put all the mesh in to layers hid them and tried opening the scene
- Importing the scene into MAYA 2014 and 2015 to see which works.
- I have juggled between MAYA 2014- 2015 to do most of the work for the scene cause it was the only way to complete my weekly goals.
- A major problem was with the Z_depth pass, when i try to apply the pass the whole scene corrupts its self and crashes. all the mess looses its material and only the wire frame shows up with out any material to the mesh. I had to make the depth in comp by adding in shadows overlaying fog and faking reflections.
I worked on 2014 to make the submersible, the foreground, mid and the background and to render them I have used MAYA 2015. regardless of the software or the version I have to my satisfaction managed to make the best of my time and talents and problem solving skills to deliver a good out put.
I have now gathered a clear idea on how to plan, schedule, gather resources, problem solve and to do basic comp. This will help me to work efficiently in my major project.
I decided to make a robotic submersible in my scene. I found this image of sub on google and decided to make a version of my own.
The geometry is fairly simple and it has only a basic body and a frame around it which houses the lights.
After bringing it into the scene I added two tubes to its rear to give it a sort of power cables kind of contraption.
The body is a simple plastic shader and the frames are blin, the laps are blin and the front light bulbs are surface sharer with an added glow effect.
These are the individual passes I have gathered from the scene. I have split the assets in the scene to have better control over the comp work I have to do.
I found that the broken mast of the ship was much brighter then the rest so I took an individual render of it and over laid it in photoshop and color corrected it to gain the preferred bluish green. the god rays also needed some work so I over laid the godrays pass on top of the Master beauty to get a more controlled fall off.
The head lights of the small submersible was also not right in the raw render. So by taking a separate pass for them I could add a nice glow to them in photoshop.
Problems while rendering:
when I was in the process of rendering the scene, I was stopped mid way by an unknown problem where Maya stops rendering the scene after 85th frame.
solutions tried:
rendering in smaller batches of 10 frames per render.
rendering one layer at a time
rendering at a lower quality (from PRODUCTION-0.06* to TEST- 0.25*)
reducing the texture map size from 4K to 2K
optimizing the scene a few times.
all this has still not cleared my issue with rendering. So I have decided to go to plan B of making a still image render of the scene. I rendered out amibient occlusion, Master beauty, the god rays, the fog, the fishes and others separately and composted them in photoshop to get a good output.
currently I am still trying to find a way to get the whole scene rendered so that I can still produce a video out put of the scene.
finally I managed to get a water surface effect in the scene. I am currently trying out a whole lot of iterations of the waves. The process:
-Creating a plane and giving it a simple blin material.
-No texture is added to it.
-In the bump I added a noise node and stretched its coverage area.
-By adjusting the threshold limit I got a nice wavy pattern in the bump.
-Then further tweaking the “repeat UV” setting I managed to spread the wave pattern all through the plane.
-The plane is completely transparent and I have adjusted the eccentricity and specularity of the material to get the wave highlights.
For the moon light, it was a bit of a struggle because I couldn’t find any reference videos of how moon light looks underneath water. I also had to figure out how to get a concentrated light source and also a white spot shining above the water surface. For this effect I followed this procedure.
- Creating a spot light.
- Going into the light glow setting,I added a ball halo effect to the light.
- Also to have a more brighter and prominent light source I added an area light to the spot light itself, by going to the mental ray tab in the spot light’s attribute settings and turned on an Area light and changed its type to “Disc”.
- The spot light has Ray trace shadows so that it can penetrate the wave plane and shine through it.
Here is a first render out of my underwater scene. I have not worked with any passes there are lot of corrections to be made. I took the master layer in to after effects and added a lens blur and some grain to it. Also added a sound of a submersible robot which I found on you tube. A good progress after long!
here is a comparison of the shot with and with out noise. I showed the image to few and they all said it lacks the feel of water because its crisp clear and does not have any noise or distortion to it. So I took the render to photoshop and added a simple noise layer to the image. now it looks a bit more believable and suits the underwater feel.
