This is a CG sequence I made inspired by Diablo 3's Witchdoctor character class. Responsible for all aspects.

Concept art for mask and staff from Blizzard Entertainment. The whole idea was inspired from the video recently published by Blizzard titled "Black Soulstone."

Software used:
Maya
Mudbox
MARI
Photoshop
Nuke
Crazybump
UV Layout

I am currently a student at Gnomon School of VFX. Comments/critique is very welcome!!

Awesome work, you have some nice SSS on the candles and the lighting is great aswell. I think the reflection/specular on the book could do with a bumpmap to break it up, right now it looks a bit like polished wood. Another thing would be to have the lighting/shadows move a little to suggest the flickering of the candles.

yep pretty awesome stuff there. I would say the skull on the ground could use some work though

Looks fantastic! I would love to know about your workflow with the candles.
