"Mirror of Dead Rose" is a personal dark fantasy project inspired by the grim, twisted world of Alice: Madness Returns, blended with the cold, melancholic, and gothic atmosphere. This project was an experiment in visual storytelling and exploring a hybrid 3D pipeline. Traditional craftsmanship combined with generative AI. The Mad Hatter (Main Character): Fully created by me using a traditional 3D pipeline: Sculpting: ZBrush (high-poly anatomy, clothing folds, stylized horror features) Modeling, Retopology, Bones : Blender, RizomUV Texturing: Substance 3D Painter (handcrafted decaying, gothic textures) Render, Post-processing: Blender (Cycles), Photoshop Supporting Characters (Alice, March Hare, Cheshire Cat): To populate the eerie world and explore cutting-edge workflows, Alice, the March Hare, and the Cheshire Cat were developed using Generative AI tools - from the initial visual concept to the final 3D meshes. I wanted to capture a sense of cold dread, psychological horror, and melancholic beauty. I’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback! Thank you for watching.
