First project in Unreal Engine 5
From knowing nothing to here took me ~9 days from start to finish. Pleased with the outcome but I know I can improve on it.
Learning the UI and properly using Quixel took me a while but Lighting was by far the hardest part of this. Getting the god rays working as I wanted took me a couple days in itself. I'm happy with the outcome especially the composition of the scene which I spent the last day tweaking.
Oh and I forgot to add any wind for the foreground foliage, oops.
Made with UE5 and Quixel Megascans
Bench was from Sketchfab: Old Wooden Table by GameDev Nick
Logs were from Sketchfab: Log by Yu
Inspiration was taken from Vinland Saga S2 EP1
