Hashima (exterior Cycles-render)

I wanted to test Cycles with a real environment project. So I recreated a scene from an actual place called Hashima.

(click to watch Hi-Res)

Hashima is an island outside of Japan that was used as a coal mining facility from 1887 to 1974. It’s been completly abandoned since then. You can read more about it here:

I used Cycles as main-renderer. Additional passes like volumetrics, ID-pass, AO and Mist was rendered in BI and composited in.

The ivy was made with  the IvyGen addon, the rest was modelled manually.

Hope you like it!
