Cinematic 3D Environment Created with SpeedTree & UE5

Senior Environment Artist at Rockstar Games Jonathon Gregory Bick shared this moody environment with an abandoned village and a mysterious knight figure, accompanying high-quality renders with a story-rich narrative.

The scene features an impressively high level of detail, with lifelike texturing of wood, moss, and metal, and a complex composition with balanced scattering of details. The environment was brought to life using a combination of Unreal Engine, Maya, ZBrush, Houdini, Marmoset Toolbag, SpeedTree, and Marvelous Designer.
