This is a light doodle dedicated towards the dark universe of Diablo and the Soulsborne series. I've always been fascinated by the genres and especially the dark gothic environments. I remember taking so many screenshots on my first playthrough of dark souls 3 lol just admiring the skies, architectures, and lighting.
Now having learned the art of lighting and Unreal Engine 5, I finally was able to recreate that same emotion and atmosphere I was so drawn to all those times. And I must say I am quite already falling in love with the art of lighting, with this piece being the most time I've ever spent on a project since I got into lighting, I really hope you like it :)
At last, huge shout out to the best
