Concept Art by Danna Song : https://www.artstation.com/artwork/q9bWbR
Class assignment : Recreate a 2D concept art in 3D. This was our final school project. I tried using different techniques and learned a lot from them. Most materials were made directly in Unreal Engine with masks to iterate more quickly. I also made some scripts to help generate buildings, place objects around, etc. I used rigid and soft body simulations for some objects and did some high to low res baking. The lighting was very challenging since the concept art has a very artistic touch that doesn't accurately depict reality. The same goes for the perspective.
