This is a scene that I've wanted to do for a while - I've spent hours and hours of my life pouring over the concept art and environments by the artists at Naughty Dog for TLOU part 1&2. and wanted to attempt to do something along a similar vein. They are a masterclass at storytelling through environments, and that's what I try to do in my own work :)
Overall I'm real happy with how it went. Every asset here is mine, bar the vines/ivy/graffiti decals, which I imported from Megascans. My highlights in this project's probably my lighting work, or what I learned doing the wall textures. I could definitely work on my skills of trying to model softer surfaces such as the chair and pillows. But I'm happy I tried and there's a load of assets I'm really happy with too.

A short video showcasing some of the scene. Unfortunately I couldn't get the media on the TV to play in the video renderer in Unreal. The internet doesn't seem to know either, lol.
