Windmill Scene + Breakdown

This is the project I spent the most time working on, around 3 weeks in total. Most of that time was spent working on the model of the windmill, and the rest was spent waiting for my computer to respond. I'm extremely proud of how it turned out and I think it is safe to say that this is one of my best work, if not the absolute best. I'll post some new renders focusing on different areas of the scene as soon as I upgrade my PC.

I got the inspiration to recreate this scene in 3D by Hamish Frater. Here's the link to the original concept: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/zAVxkd

I also have a video on my YouTube channel which goes over exactly how I made this scene and gives a detailed breakdown of it. You can watch it here: https://youtu.be/XP1sfzu_JG8
