In rememorationem de Oraculum

Another portfolio piece! This time using the opportunity to expand a little bit on the universe of one of my past projects "Bad Omen", hope to make something bigger with it one day.

Went into some weird directions in the beginning because i didn't know exactly what i was going for, but eventually arrived on that last one and made some variations of it, B+C was the one i chose to continue with.

After the design was made, i sculpted a 3d model for reference and rendered it in Blender. Gold material by Squid Paster and Bone material by Tecla Mtz

First round of thumbnails. I needed the symbol to be in focus, so it limited the choices for angles a bit. All of these didn't feel quite right to me but i liked the last two a bit more so i followed through with them

Second round of thumbnails, exploring a bit more the two that i liked until they felt good and where more readable
