The Tree Of Life

I created this 3D model, based on an idea that I had of a sci-fi dystopian future where only a few remnants of nature still exist, using a variety of software that I've learned over the years as a 3D modeler; including 3DSmax, Maya, Substance Painter and more recently, Lumion and Speed Tree. The incubators in this scene supply oxygen and nutrients to the budding plants. I drew upon inspiration primarily from the films #TheMatrix and #Alien for visual development when creating this piece.

I utilized many tricks and techniques to quickly create and render a captivating environment and composition that draws the viewer in and (hopefully) leaves more to be desired, as always, with a strong emphasis on lighting, foreground, middle-ground and background elements to help frame the main focal point of the large incubator in the center. I hope you enjoy viewing this concept. Please comment below and tell me your thoughts!
