Image Completion Time: 2 weeks


I am always a fan of chinese folktale and it is not unusual for me to start one.Below are some basic information about this character.

God of Marriage
The Old Man in the Moon or the God of Marriage is Yue-lao, who bears the weighty responsibility of deciding all mortal marriages. That means the marriage of any couple in the world have been prearranged by him. Yue-lao ties the future husband and wife together with an invisible silken cord that never breaks as long as life lasts. At the appropriate time, the cord brings the predestined mates together and they wed!

This has been a subject of Chinese poetry and song since the ancient times.I was busy with academic stuff in SCAD(graduated in March) and now starting to utilise my free time (while looking for job in LA) to work on something new.

This piece took me around 2 weeks because I have to spend time learning Zbrush 3.Rendered in Mental Ray and some photoshop touchup and compositing.

It is beautiful and full with wise of old tales.
I mean it is rare how the cg add more to an ancient thing but this picture made it.
Thanks for the deep picture!

I'm learning Maya (along with other programs, eg. Zbrush) at the moment, and seeing something like this is very inspiring for me :) Thankyou. It's just amazing work. Very well done :)
