Frozen Ship is an incredible experience, where you are the sailor who miraculously survived the sinking of your ship. You are now waking up on the shore of a colossal iceberg in the middle of the frozen ocean. In front of you is a huge hole in the face of the iceberg.

The artist's primary goal was to craft an awe-inspiring environment set against a frozen backdrop. Extensive research played a pivotal role throughout the project, serving as the cornerstone for achieving utmost realism and addressing the intricate complexities of rendering ice. As the project evolved, the artist chose to incorporate elements of fantasy to enhance its visual appeal. 

Initially, the multifaceted interplay of light with its simultaneous reflection and absorption presented a significant challenge. Illuminating the scene was equally demanding as the artist delicately balanced transparency and light. The transition from exterior to interior was a particularly intricate puzzle due to the nuanced properties of ice and their interplay with the camera.

"I personally crafted every model and texture in this project, except for the water. Maya served as my primary tool, breathing life into these models, while Photoshop assisted in crafting textures that added realism to the project.  An exceptional moment was creating the ice texture directly in Unreal, seamlessly integrating it. This project mirrors my dedication to artistry and innovation, blending history and fantasy to create a frozen masterpiece from countless hours of effort and decisions." stated the artist.
