This is the third lighting match stream where the idea is to learn about appealing lighting through imitation (links to previous streams below). As artists, we all should have an inspiration folder of artwork that sharpens us.

The goal of these exercises is to pick an image with impressive lighting, analyze it, and recreate it. This time we will look at a striking style by Julien Kaspar. Previously we've used Cycles but this time we're using the cool new kid on the block, Eevee.
