Special effects project

An old school special effects project, created in Softimage|XSI. It takes place at Helm's Deep from LOTR. I actually created the whole castle and walls, but only a part is visible in the video. I was going to add a short walkthrough at the beginning, but I abandoned it after submitting the project. Not very good quality, sorry for that...

Hope you like it:

More...

I've been trying to add more dimension and perspective to my sketches.

Bear in mind that except from the first two and fifth, the rest of the pictures are not a full page of my sketchbook. The sketchbook has a height of about one male hand and a bit more.

Maybe I should have a height comparison...

The first is a compilation of head sketches.
