This personal project it’s a modified version of my previous project to fit the challenge. I’ve decided to go for moody and dark lighting, to have the feeling of being in a Lovecraft environment. I’ve also made use of complementary colors like green and red.
Created on Unreal Engine 5 with a photorealistic environment pipeline. Lighting all real-time dynamic with Lumen and Nanite Meshes. Assets textured with Substance Painter.
For the Cinematics I’ve used the amazing anamorphic camera plugin by Dylan Browne
No post production or color correction has been added.

Thank you Xavier! Really glad to know that I’ve nailed the lovecraft mood :smiley:

This looks amazing!
I’m curious how do you set up the light so it doesn’t flicker. I’m always getting that glitchy flicker when cranking up the power of the light.
