Stairs in the Woods

This is my last projet of 2020. It's inspired by "The Boy and the Beast", an animation movie released by Mamoru Hosoda.

The challenge was to turn a 2D-anime scene into a 3D environment. It was also a chance for me to find an efficient way to add some moss on the stairs and the trees.

It was tricky to optimize the Sub-Surface and the back-lighting but the GPU-Based render, Redshift, allowed me to render this scene with my rtx 2070 without a lot of troubles.
