"Between the Nile and the Throne"
Every character in this scene — Pharaoh, his wife Asiya, and Musa's mother — was hand-modeled, sculpted, and rigged from scratch in Blender, with the wireframe on the mother's face showing the topology and edge flow built for clean deformation and expression. Beyond the characters, the entire environment — the temple, the riverbank, the desert terrain — was built and lit as a real-time scene in Unity, so the story could eventually move, not just render as a still.
This project is my attempt to bring the Quranic story of Musa (AS) to life through 3D art: full character pipelines from base mesh to rig, custom historically-inspired costume and prop design for Ancient Egypt, and an environment built to carry the weight of the narrative — the river, the palace, the desert Musa's mother once walked toward. It's a one-person production covering modeling, texturing, rigging, and world-building, aimed at turning a story of faith and courage into something people can actually see and eventually walk through.
