Wild West - Unreal Eninge 5 Environment Design

Wild West is a landscape design project I created in Unreal Engine 5. It was built with a lot of attention to detail and based on extensive reference work. My main inspiration was the incredible artist Mark Maggiori. He's an exceptionally talented painter known for his breathtaking oil paintings, especially those depicting the Wild West era.

His works capture cinematic moments and storytelling in a truly stunning way. I was heavily inspired by his art when creating this scene. The way he composes frames and tells stories through brushstrokes deeply influenced the direction and mood of my design.

Huge thanks to BigMediumSmall and Brushify for their incredible asset packs that helped bring this Wild West scene to life. Your work is a true gift to the environment art community.

The background music used in this video is from Red Dead Redemption 2, which perfectly captures the mood of the American frontier and elevated the atmosphere of this cinematic.
