3D Shadow - Street Elements 30

How many times have you struggled to create a believable flat shadow in your design? How often did you try to extract a realistic shadow from an object, only to fall short? Shadows can be notoriously difficult to manipulate because they are inherently intangible. That's why we've developed 100% transparent shadows with built-in Ambient Occlusion to simplify the process for designers, cartoon artists, visual effects artists, compositors, and 3D artists alike. These versatile shadows are perfect for anyone looking to add depth and realism to their scene. Whether you're working on a 2D or 3D project, they contain everything you need to achieve a stunning, realistic look. Our images were rendered at an impressive 2000×2000 pixels with 16-bit depth per channel, ensuring crisp, banding-free results. We captured shadows from multiple angles – 25°, 45°, and top views in various directions – and saved two versions of each: a hard shadow ideal for sunny scenes and a soft shadow perfect for cloudy conditions. With our shadows, you can choose the one that suits your design best and apply it to your object. Then, simply use any deformer tool like Photoshop's "Transform" or After Effects' "Corner Pin" effect to warp the shadow into place (video tutorials are included). Feel free to mix and match hard and soft shadows based on your scene's lighting conditions. Remember, shadows remain consistent – they won't change regardless of your design choices.
