Matte Painting - CG Workshop - art #2

                                                                       "Invasion in Rio"

I took a picture from my apartment and used the main scene to recreate an alien invasion with giant eggs that would infestate the city. I was inspired by the Starcraft concept of the Zerg. 
I used Photoshop for painting, 3ds max for modeling the eggs, the alien ground, water, mountain, buildings with camera mapping and rendering. The sky is animated in After Effects and rendered in max to integrate the scene, and the meteors were made in Lightwave. Final comp is After Effects.
