Time Freeze Shot: 18 Dragon Subduing Palm - Blender 3D

I love to create these "time freeze" or "bullet stop matrix" style shots. It gives me a chance to practice posing but also gives a nice perspective to a digital art piece. I LOVE digital art and 2D art, sometimes I just wanna climb into them to explore the world being created. :)

I'm definitely planning to do more advance shots than this!

Made in Blender and color graded in After Effects.

This shot was inspired by a lot of the Wuxia dramas/novels growing up.

Reference Board: I really love the environment and leaves VFX from the movie Shang Chi(2021)

Concept Picture at beginning stages, priority is character

Adding the simulations and leaves in Environment, adding base character for a placeholder
