Creating Disney's Haunted Mansion in 2D/3D - Blender with Grease Pencil

Hey everyone! Finished a new 2D/3D and wanted to walk you guys through it. This piece is inspired by Disneyland's Haunted Mansion, my all-time favorite attraction. I had a lot of fun creating this scene and recreating the mansion’s setting. I meant to finish this earlier, but unfortunately was pretty busy until recently. This scene combines meshes with a textured toon shader supplemented with grease pencil elements. I also incorporated a few new things I’ve been learning and was pretty happy with the result.

Hope you guys enjoy this video!

Fantastic execution! Feels like an intro to an Addams Family animated series. Great work!

This is just so stunning but I rarely see this style used anywhere. I'd love to see more games/shows with this art style.
I'd love to be able to make my game in this art style.
Thank you so much for sharing your work and knowledge!

I purchased the CG Boost Launch Pad on the 1st of January this year and bought 2 more around the mid year. And I discovered your channel also around mid year and started to learn grease pencil as well. So I was so excited to hear your course had been release from CG Boost, which is the 4th and the last purchase of 2022 from CG Boost😊

Dude, please remake the Tower of Terror poster! I've always been a fan of that ride ever since it opened, and I actually saw your poster on it! It's very skillfully made, but I really wanna see a remade version with this same art style you just used for the Haunted Mansion! Thanks, and keep up the stunning and wonderful work!!

[coyohti]

I love this so much! Thank you for sharing your workflow - it has given me some ideas for a project I have in mind but was kind of stumped on. 💖

The Haunted Mansion is one of my favorite rides at Disneyland. It’s so strange.

[SneekeeMonkee]

Ahhh the animation on the hearse is so smart. Do you know of any resources to learn how to use drivers to match the wheel rotation to the movement like you did?

[alsigerpro]

how did u come up with ideas and themes for your illustration?

[cutout.pro.]
