Candide - steampunk creations part 1

for my last project we were asked to design 8 costumes based on the operatto of 'Candide'. we had to keep the costumes in context but place our own spin on things.

for my designs I decided to take the idea of the start of the industrial revolution in the 18th century and expand on it, creating a bizarre contrast between 18th century character in a steampunk setting. for the main characters I kept their costumes very 18th century with hints of modernisation depending on which character. the chorus I used as an extension of the set. for the set I based the idea of it being similar to a warehouse, feeding the idea that machinery cannot change what they do...very much like the world of candide.

I created the set in a 3D program then rendered it to create two scenes.
