I am always a fan of chinese folktale
and it is not unusual for me to start one.Below are some basic
information about this character.
God of Marriage
The Old Man in the Moon or the God of Marriage
is Yue-lao, who bears the weighty responsibility of deciding all mortal
marriages. That means the marriage of any couple in the world have been
prearranged by him. Yue-lao ties the future husband and wife together
with an invisible silken cord that never breaks as long as life lasts.
At the appropriate time, the cord brings the predestined mates together
and they wed!
This has been a subject of Chinese poetry and song since
the ancient times.I was busy with academic stuff in SCAD(graduated in
March) and now starting to utilise my free time (while looking for job
in LA) to work on something new.
This piece took me
around 2 weeks because I have to spend time learning Zbrush 3.Rendered
in Mental Ray and some photoshop touchup and compositing.
