She covers her approach to composition using foreground/midground/background separation, modular asset creation with Trim Sheets in 3ds Max, sculpting in ZBrush, texturing in Substance 3D Painter and Designer, and a two-part Exponential Height Fog system for depth and contrast control. Key insights include treating the entire scene as a single painting, using leading lines to guide the viewer's eye to the focal point, and exaggerated silhouettes to reinforce a stylized atmosphere. The project took 7 weeks and emphasizes finishing personal projects over chasing perfection. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
