Barad-dûr

Hi! This is my really first project where I had to use a lot Blender to model my Barad-dûr's tower version, making a terrain with World Creator and making the lighting and the mood. Than I made the matte painting and the final paint over in Photoshop. I really had such a great time (and struggle at first) with this project and I got the opportunity to better improve myself with Blender.
I really hope you like it!

Modeling steps I made in Blender, first to define the tower and than the base of it. I than create the terrain to better recreate Mordor's mood

I explored some new designs for the tower because I wanted to make a sort of redraw of it and I chose the second one as I thought it could represet  the evilness and the greatest powers of Sauron
