Firelights' Base From Arcane Recreated in Unreal Engine 5

Take a look at Firelight's Den, an incredible 3D recreation of the hideout of Firelights, a street gang from Riot Games' renowned Arcane TV series, created by 3D Environment Artist Fausta Gunawan as part of the Think Tank Training Centre's course.

Powered by Unreal Engine 5, the scene was inspired by the works of Martin Bailly, DEB, and Maéna Paillet, who all worked on the show itself, perfectly capturing the original series' mood and atmosphere and boasting detailed hand-made stylized assets and a great lighting setup. According to the author, such software as Maya, ZBrush, Substance 3D Painter/Designer, and DaVinci Resolve were also used during production.
