This second diorama is an excerpt from a larger Baldur's Gate 3 fan project I am working on in Unreal Engine 5, and dedicated to all the cats in the game. For this one, I wanted to create a sunny and vibrant environment, just like you would find in the city.
The design of the cat is my own, inspired by the beautiful animal statues you can find in the game. Objects like the trellis walls or the pedestal have been created to resemble the original designs so that they all come together and look familiar in the end.
BG3 has changed my view on my career as a 3D artist and, consequently, my life. With this diorama and the larger project I am working on, I want to express my deep admiration for this masterpiece of a game and Larian Studios.
Should they ever read this: Thank you so much for inspiring me, for changing my life with your game!
You can find the first diorama here if you haven't seen it, yet ;) https://www.artstation.com/artwork/EvrJwq
