Cold Respite

Inspired by Castlevania and Curse of Strahd, and also a preview of what my winter will look like in the next couple months here in Minesota ;)
First time using Unreal Engine 5. New technologies that I learned how to use in this project are Lumen and Nanite, which are actually quite nice to work with and saved me a bunch of time. I wanted this project to demonstrate my abilities to tell visual stories as a world builder and lighting artist.
Assets are from my collection of free EGM library, had to convert most of them into nanite meshes. Also some custom material work done on my part to control hue/sat/emissives/etc, as well as the snow buildup visuals.
