Forest Lighting Study: Daytime Finished!

Stoked to show the final renders for my forest lighting study in UE4! I'll be doing a big post about my new directions

  1. Alex, can you share us some guidelines on how you achieved this in UE?
    I'm not an artist, I'm just a hobbyist, but this is amazing.

    1. Stephen,

      Thanks for checking out my work! For the most part it was just a matter of tuning UE4's materials and lighting. I use a sky light for fill, a directional light, and UE4's foliage material. I also would say don't undersell the value of a good look up table for adding a bit of extra contrast and color control. I broke things down a bit here if it helps:

      Hope that helps!
