Artist's Comment
About Me:
My name is Daniel Gryningstjerna. I am a 19 years old freelance artist living in Sweden. I discovered Blender in 2016 and have since been using Blender almost every day for the past few years..
About "Carousel:"
I gave the artwork the name “Carousel” since it is one of the main objects in the scene and was one of the objects that I spent the most time working on.
This was a personal project that I was doing in my free time that took around 5 days to make. It was a fun process to model all the toys and just adding details everywhere
to make the scene feel more believable and interesting to look at. I therefore tried to make as many toys as possible to fill the shelves with.

I rendered the final renders in Cycles since I wanted it to be as high quality as possible. I also used the Blender compositor to add glare and made some smaller tweaks in Photoshop.
