Take a look at this beautiful scene featuring Chinese-inspired architecture showcased by Nikolas Volchenko, 3D Environment Artist at Saber Interactive.
The cinematic setup, depicting a Chinese temple located in snowy mountains, features splendid complex lighting and a highly detailed background, which makes the artwork deep and lifelike. The artist uses a mild color palette with violet shades, creating an appealing contrast between a cold environment and a lit building, guiding the viewers through the composition.
Nikolas used ZBrush, Unreal Engine, Blender, Substance 3D, Marmoset Toolbag, and Marvelous Designer. According to the artist, the scene was inspired by the elegance of Chinese aesthetics. "In this work, I focused on achieving a high level of detail, meticulously crafting every element. Unreal Engine's nanite technology proved invaluable in bringing this intricate vision to life," Nikolas shared.
