3D blockout to final render

Start from a gray-box 3D scene, render it as concept art, then mark changes in color and re-render only what you marked.

How it works

  1. 1

    Block out in Blender

    Camera, scale and layout are set in a quick gray-box scene, in Blender or any 3D tool.

  2. 2

    Render from the blockout

    Mirva renders the scene as finished concept art, keeping the camera and the shapes.

  3. 3

    Mark changes in color

    Paint simple color marks on the render for what should change — a new bridge, a different roof.

  4. 4

    Re-render the marked areas

    Only what you marked changes; the rest of the image stays as it was.

Take one environment from a gray sketch to a detailed matte painting, then iterate weather, time of day and camera angle in the same world.
