Ghibli Forest Environment

Personal Project —> Ghibli Inspired Stylized Environment 
What began as a group university project in my 5th term has since grown into my most ambitious personal work to date, a full reimagining of that original environment, rebuilt and expanded with a much deeper creative vision. 
Drawn heavily from the atmosphere of Studio Ghibli films, this project explores hand crafted natural environments . A significant portion of the core systems, most notably the foliage simulation were originally developed during the group project, where I served as the Technical Artist. I've since rebuilt and extended those systems substantially for this personal version.
