Some more progress on my latest environment piece inside Unreal Engine 5.
I started bringing in the wooden barriers/spikes in to engine. I need to finish them tomorro with some ropes to tie them up.
Also started on some debris meshes to scatter around.
More updates tomorrow!

Starting to layer in some more of the blockout. Figuring a direction of the layout, texture usage before working on the models (decimated right now with basic UVs).
Landscape will be build using spline meshes, blending the base landscape with the spline meshes similar to my SW environment

Switching back to some blockout work of the throne area. Small break from Trim sheets.
Will be working on this more tomorrow.
Feeling good about this now.
Just need to push my detail design work and focus on small details on larger props. More gilded designs needed. Practice required! :D

Starting to add the trim sheets to some meshes. I need to work on some of the models to add details.
changed the lighting a bit to push the focus onto the throne area.
Starting to feel better about this environment but still a ways to go!
