This project was inspired by the latest pack from Forma 3D, which provided a fantastic starting point for the overall concept. (Check out their incredible work here: https://www.forma3dstore.com/).
The landscape was created using Gaea 2, which allowed me to sculpt a realistic arctic terrain. After generating the landscape, I imported it into Unreal Engine 5 (UE5) and utilized the MWLandscapeAutoMaterial from Fab to quickly texture the environment. This approach gave me more time to focus on set dressing and refining the scene.
For the core setting, I leaned heavily on the Arctic Base Pack from Forma 3D, layering in additional details with assets from Fab, such as EasyFog, ModelshopGreebles, and the incredible textures and models from Quixel Megascans.
This scene was a joy to build, and I'm thrilled with how it came together.
