Ruins in the Wilderness

A scene I built in UE5 primarily for creating cinematics. I used assets from megascans and a couple of packs from the Unreal marketplace.

The story/idea I created for this scene is that these are the ruins of a Cathedral left by an ancient order of knights who had good intentions of creating a religious place of harmony, but strangely vanished without a trace, but not before becoming recluse and rumours spread in the nearby village of them being led astray by dark arts.

I wrote the story in a bit more detail in my artstation profile - ArtStation - Ancient Ruins in the Wilderness

This map looks EPIC! The background mountains fit perfectly to the scene and the lighting work is OUSTANDING. Congratulations!

I agree with @NIDAL_NIJM_GAMES on this one; this is a gorgeous ancient ruin scene! Each screenshot captures this monumental structure perfectly and allows us to ponder the mystery of how it came to be that way. Excellent work with this creation! :star_struck:

Something in this made me desperately crave a Lord of the Rings binge. The little bit of lore you gave really brought out my inner nerd :smiley:

Hope to see more of this story maybe? :smiley:

Thanks! - I’ve been world building in my head where this scene/environment takes place and definitely giving some thought to how I can bring this particular story to life in a cinematic.

I’ve a lot of ideas and lore for this world so likely won’t be the only story as well :slight_smile:
