Studio note

Gauntlet of Gods is Tivan Hajiloo’s entry for Pwnisher’s 30-Day 3D Challenge. The piece centres on Surena, a fictional ancient Persian soldier framed as a collectible card amid fire, smoke, and a ruined battlefield.

Tivan Hajiloo created the artwork primarily in Blender, using JangaFX for the fire and smoke simulations. After Effects was used for compositing, while Megascans assets helped bring texture, atmosphere, and environmental detail to the final image.
