This project was a stretch for me. I have never taken on organic modeling or materials before and I was really concerned about what the scene I was going to create would be. Thankfully a friend pointed me into the direction of shrines and it kickstarted my ideation process. I decided to create a sort of mushroom garden around the shrine because they have a lot to offer in terms of subsurface light play and the way their textures can be rendered. There are so many different types of mushrooms so they provided a lot of texture variation.
