Moonbeam
Created in Blender in collaboration with PBRMAX, Moonbeam is a two-part scene. First, an astronaut climbs misty temple steps in soft lantern light. The second scene reveals a quiet shrine lit by a single shaft of moonlight. PBRMAX assets give the aged stone and worn wood a realistic surface, with carved walls adding depth. Light connects the two parts of the story. I wanted their stillness and contrast to create a sense of wonder and peace.

I made this Blender environment artwork in collaboration with PBRMAX, working with materials, lantern light and moonlight across two scenes.



Using PBRMAX assets freed me to focus on lighting and tone. I spent the most time getting moonlight and lantern light to blend naturally, and the scene felt grounded once both sources worked together.
