Hi! For this challenge, I’ve taken inspiration from the Velvet Road series from Max Bedulenko, which interested me with its use of striking tones and serene yet melancholic atmosphere. This concept inspired me to design a small, forgotten city with a dominant blue color that evokes themes of tranquility and isolation. The city once flourished with culture and vibrancy but has since faded into quiet abandonment, leaving behind hints of its past glory. I’ve prepared a reference board to guide my vision.

I’ll be using Unreal Engine 5 for this project, as my aim is to create a detailed, game-ready environment. To bring the setting to life, I plan to incorporate intricate textures, and atmospheric elements that highlight the city’s distinct character and mood. #learteschallenge
