Fu Dog Lake is inspired by ancient Chinese Fu Dog sculptures, placing it in the middle of a lake is half inspired by Claude Monet's artworks and fantastical elements of Studio Ghibli.

This piece was modeled, textured, and rendered in Blender using Eevee. Highpoly sculpt was made in ZBrush. I created custom watercolor paint toon shader in Blender to replicate a Studio Ghibli style.
