The Contradiction of an Aristocracy Expedition

This still life piece seeks to contrast European baroque decoration against Egyptian artifacts in parallel representations. A set composed during a luxury expedition deep into newly discovered desert tombs. Uncovered masterpieces preserved by some unknown influence have been further polished and mounted for admiration while enjoying high vintage wines. Though these bottles have since been stained in the present adventure the highborn crew can sit back and relish in their well earned successes while the "help" finish cleaning up the remains of the now defaced tomb. The night is young and celebration is at hand.

For this piece I sought to contrast visual styles with development pipelines. Moving Left to Right I flowed from unique pipeline development with highpoly sculpts to procedural development and a few masked based solutions. Thus the Bottles, Coins, and Chalice are all Unique works and the Candles, Gems, Artifacts and Books are procedural.
