Pokemon Cynthia vs Giratina

This was a project submitted for a local contest which got second place. The goal was to combine the stylized style of Pokémon and bring it to realism, and learn Compositing in Blender.

With the use of Render Layers and optimization techniques, composition and rendering were easier and helped achieve the desired result.
