Dragons belong in the sky. Up there,they are graceful, majestic and awe-inspiring creatures. On the ground - they often turn into those awkward, winged lizards with very little mobility. And it becomes a challenge to make them look interesting.



This shot from Blur’s ‘Elders Scrolls Online: Elsweyr’ cinematic was a bit of a struggle for me. Two dragons fighting on the grounds of a half-ruined temple.



This is an extended version of the shot. I rendered it in Vray, added some Rayfire destruction and FX in post for the purpose of this study. Mixed in some sound effects as well. The score is “Preparing for War” by Zeonium.
