Description

“There’s no way that’s not a picture.” That’s what most people say when I show them my recent work. Isn’t that what we all do it for? The raw wonder and disbelief inspired by incredible art. Game design is an art form, so please allow me to show you the brush, the canvas, and the paint.

Unreal Engine has always been well-known for its realistic lighting and graphics, but when paired with the stunningly realistic library of assets from Quixel, there is absolutely no competition!
