Hello Blue Sky, Maria is here. I am a video game lighting artist hangout with Unreal Engine often, and a warship enthusiastic. Additionally, I enjoy Lolita fashion, cosplay, and sewing clothing for dolls. Welcome to my new little craft cave here.

These reference images were captured using my phone at the Egypt Pavilion in the British Museum.

Top Lighting delivers the strongest and most articulate indirect light response across the scene, sculpting the surroundings with precision and details.

Colour theory is my lighthouse whenever I seek the rhythm behind mood breakdowns.
A hotspot in an enclosed space lets light stretch—directly and through ambient bounce. Subtle, but transformative. It's a quiet way to let the scene breathe.

The Tales of Two Kings, Maria Yue💡

This piece is a fragment of lore, penned by my own hand. Farewell, my kings... ------------------------------- Here lie two lost kings of woe, Crowns of dust, bones of floe. ---------------------...

My poster for the official JAWS 50th Anniversary art show~The exhibit opens tonight at Art Alliance of Monmouth County in Red Bank, NJ 🦈

A faux retro Taiwanese movie poster of JAWS (1975) all text is in Traditional Chinese. The poster depicts a famous scene of Mrs. Kitner slapping Chief Brody, telling him that her boy is dead. Behind Brody are Mayor Vaughn and Dr. Hooper all look sad and ashamed, heads hanging low. Behind Mrs. Kitner is the funeral director reaching out for Mrs. Kitner, getting ready to take her away from the scene. Mrs. Kitner is dressing all in black. Skirt, blazer, heels, and a hat with a veil. The veil and skirt blowing in the wind. Chief Brody wears glasses, a blue Amity Police jacket, brown shoes, and khakis. His head is low and turned away from the viewer after being slapped. He is looking away from the viewer in shame. Vaughn is wearing a striped blazer with a pink shirt, brown shoes, and dark blue slacks. Hooper is wearing a beanie, glasses, denim jacket, denim pants, and converse shoes. The funeral director wears a fedora, glasses and all black suit. In the background is the tiger shark they mistook for the great white shark, strung up on a hook and rope, and were prematurely celebrating its capture. Further into the background all the townspeople look equally ashamed for the death of the Kitner boy and their now embarrassing celebration.
