Hecate's temple

Environment study of a temple dedicated to the goddess Hecate. The early concept was only done in 2D, while the second and final concept was also modelled on Blender. The first temple was a sort of guard post set on a floating, moon-shaped rock in space, for she is one of the goddesses of the moon and guardian of both the Underworld and the Heavens. The final concept focuses on her being guardian of the Underworld, for the temple, made up of three parts (outside, entrance and underground area) works as a bridge to Hades. In order to go underground, whoever wants to reach the dead has to lit up the cauldron at the center of the entrance (which resembles the inside of the first concept) to reveal a staircase to the underground area, where the gates to Hades will open once a sacrifice is offered to the goddess.
