IMAGE DESCRIPTION:

I wanted to do a great picture of antique magical art so the skeleton
man was an ideal figure. The most time to realize this picture was to
create the characters, the special strange atmosphere of torchs and focal blur effect.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:

I began with the pose of the skeleton who see the blue flame in his hand,
after I create the modelization and decoration of the temple, the textures. Last I placed
the red-yellow omni lights sources and ambient to create the
atmospherical effect, finally IPAS adjustement for renderer focal blur effect.
