Snow Globe

25 December, 2018

Did you know that light passes through snow because of the crystalline nature of it? It doesn’t just pass straight through like glass though. Similar to a gummy bear or frosted glass, snow is often simulated through a technique called Subsurface Scattering, which I attempted to put to use both in the snow and the snowflakes floating in the scene.

Merry Christmas, and happy 2019!
