Making ruins on Cinema 4D

I started off this piece of work by creating the basic shape of Greek ruins in Cinema 4D. I did this by using multiple shapes like cylinders, cubes and prisms. To create the stairs I used a cube and then used the extrude tool to create the staggered effect, multiple times to create the stairs.


Once the basic shape of the ruins was finished I created a material to add to it. I wanted the material to look like crystal. I started off by changing the colour to black. Then I turned on the diffusion, luminance, transparency, reflectance, bump and glow. I added a texture to create a more crystal looking material and added a gradient of purple and blue to the luminance.
