Introducing YATRA
🕑 Added 2021-06-17 01:53:26 +0000 UTCHello everyone! :) I'd like to share a short-series side project I've been developing when I get the chance. 'Yatra' is an alternate universe, future/fantasy blend following a man's journey across lifetimes. Initially planned as a 3 min intro cinematic, hopefully it could lead to more.
The project is obviously still in early stages but the concept and initial cinematic has been planned out and is ready to be completed. Along with the 3d work and animation tests you're seeing from me, I've been collaborating with two talented artists on visual development, Raphael Lubke & Valentin Demchenko.
If this project looks exciting at all and worthy of your support please let me know what you think! My skill-set is lacking in many ways and I'd love to be able to support a few artists to help complete the cinematic in a reasonable amount of time, while providing assistance and direction with the spare time I have. Cheers!

Amazing visuals, check. Blood Dragon OST, check. Best animation I've ever seen (Astartes :), check.
Confused Cabal
Can't wait to see how this goes!

Looking very DUNE in parts. Very cool! Congrats on all your success sir
Kai
Looks great!
Klaas
Awesome. I was waylaid by the relatively recent release. Thanks :) A collaboration would be swell, if not for the awesome synth waves, then at least for their austral origins. By the way, really digging the pilgrim's clothing. The asymmetric touches, the bag trousers, the hidden arms. It catches the eyes. And as usual, fantastic animation and angles, even if it's so short.
Carl Gridley
Echoes of Snow in the Desert from LDR season 2. Looks great!
Astartes
Another track by PowerGlove :) Called 'Wolf'. I'm going to reach out and see if he'd be interested in collaborating for the final piece.
Klaas
Great first peek! That second track is 'Sloan' by PowerGlove, from the Blood Dragon OST, but what's the first track?

Your work is phenomenal. You are who I want to be when I grow up. Iβm 47 and do vfx but this is another level. Wow!!
Astartes
So far the main character is my own creation but going forward I think it'll be definitely easier using established concepts instead of designing as I go, especially with planning out a coherent and consistent environment.
Astartes
It's possible if they're visually interpreted as cleverly as you worded that ;)
shtimpo
You needn't even ask, Maestro! Just do! Any hints about the man?
Aaron Lee
Please make this! Your videos are always great because of how much effort and care you put into them! I love the music choice too.
Flying0strich
I get a Obi-Wan Kenobi meets Samurai Jack vibe from him
Paul fon Stein
Good looking!
Drastickej
It looks lovely! I would definitely like to see more!
STARSBarry
Unsure about the music choice as synth and desert don't really go hand in hand normally, still excited to see how it comes along.
Leon O'Connor
That looks incredible! I'm so excited to see what you make in the future of Yatra.
Improbable42
I'm excited to see what comes next.
Nate the Great
do it!
HoldMyDrink
I follow Valentin's work, good to know you're working together. Raphael's concepts look stunning! So did you find it easier to use concept art as compared to just working alone?
Justus Baldin
This looks great and i canβt wait for more. The concept for the story is also very interesting in my opinion
Daniel
Looks dope.
NotJacob
Looks great, quick question, are there any genetically enhanced transhuman super soldiers that fire mini rockets out of their assault rifles?
Tylor Van Liew
Honestly I think people will like any vfx CG work you do. You put out high quality stuff and your work ethic obviously shows.
Xavius Night
Freaking hecc dude, are you incapable of producing 'average' grade work? These models are fantastic! And the lighting is just- just- [*chef's kiss*] I look forward to seeing your work on this too!
DaeDaLuS
That is really cool, I'd definitely like to see more.
Virgiliu
Freaking love it! MOAR please! And I don't know why you're saying your skills are lacking. After seeing Astartes and now this, you're a god-tier artist in my eyes :D
Yeeticus
Hype
ibrahem
This is awesome. looking forward for more
Anton Fogelberg
Oh absolutely, keep it up. This looks amazing, the 3D work is really, really crisp and the animation is fantastic!
Staccato
Looking forward to it!!! ππ
Astartes
Thanks Beast :) 3dsmax, Zbrush, Substance Painter, Marvelous Designer, Redshift and Fusion rounds it out I think.
scodiak
I would certainly like to see more of this. A good blend between Science Fiction and Fantasy still has a interesting feel to it if made well and original.
Batcat
This looks absolutely awesome! From the concept art to just a cool idea in general. And can we just take a moment to appreciate how crisp that model is? Just likeβ¦ I canβt even
Porfirio
Plot twist: itβs Malcador The Sigillite π
