The Rings of Power - Lindon

Concept art done for the design of Lindon. As an art director I had to figure out the backgrounds throughout the sequence and help the generalist team. But my favourite task on that was the establishing shot of the city. It started from a simple plate and evolved so much to become a full cg shot that I pitched using an animation from Blender. I passed down my 3D scene and the Generalist team did their magic to make it real :)
The buildings were fun to design too, they are originating from an old John Howe sketch and from a single arch that was design for the set.
