At CG Bugs School of 3D Animation, Gaming & VFX, we believe that great art doesn’t just entertain – it connects us to our roots. This Shivaji Maharaj Jayanti, our students decided to celebrate the occasion by blending culture and creativity through a powerful 3D concept art project.
As a heartfelt tribute to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, the students designed an entire 3D royal setup, filled with elements that represent Maratha pride and leadership. Every piece of this scene was imagined and built from scratch using top-level 3D tools.
Here’s what the 3D concept featured:
The Royal Throne – Symbolizing Shivaji Maharaj’s leadership and strength, the throne was carefully sculpted to reflect royal elegance and power.
The Legendary Sword – More than a weapon, the sword represents bravery, justice, and the spirit of Swarajya.
The Iconic Jiretop – This traditional Maratha headgear, digitally reimagined, brings historical authenticity and cultural pride to the design.
What made this project even more meaningful was the dedicated work and research behind every detail. From the materials and textures to the fabric folds and historical accuracy, nothing was overlooked. The students used Autodesk Maya, ZBrush, and Substance Painter—industry-standard tools—to model, sculpt, and texture each asset.
This powerful tribute was created by the creative team of:
Priyanka Kadlag, Ravi Mhaske, Nishigandha Nirmal, and Sonawane Pratik.
They worked passionately under the guidance of Vishal Kadlag Sir, Rahul Bhalerao Sir, and Agnelo Fernandes Sir, who provided expert feedback and mentorship throughout the project.
The project, started on 17th February 2025, was impressively completed within just 3 days—ready in time to honor Shivaji Maharaj Jayanti with a meaningful and proud digital creation.
At CG Bugs, we constantly push our students to explore how animation can be more than just visuals—it can be storytelling, history, and emotion. This project is a perfect example of how 3D animation can keep history alive for future generations.
At CG Bugs, we believe art can carry history forward. If you’re passionate about digital design and storytelling, and want to turn creativity into meaningful impact, CG Bugs is the place to begin your journey.
