Desc: I always wanted to create chinese mythology illustration and I chose this particular character/story as my first piece. It took me 2 weeks to finish the first rough render in Mental Ray, few days tweaking the overall lighting.Zbrush,Maya and photoshop were used for the production of this piece. Story goes like this The Old Man in the Moon or the God of Marriage is Yue-lao, who bears the weighty responsibility of deciding all mortal marriages. That means the marriage of any couple in the world have been prearranged by him. Yue-lao ties the future husband and wife together with an invisible silken cord that never breaks as long as life lasts. At the appropriate time, the cord brings the predestined mates together and they wed! This has been a subject of Chinese poetry and song since the ancient times.
