AXIS - Realtime Game Cinematic Trailer

- Scene Breakdown -

Here are just a few of the progress shots from the making of the Europa surface environment.

These are early volumetric cloud tests using a material I made to customise the size and shape of the different types of clouds with parameters and altitude curves. Types of cloud include: Stratus, Cirrus, Cumulus and Cumulonimbus.

I used Houdini heightfield to generate meshes for the mountains and terrain. I gave the terrain customisable parameters using the Unreal Engine Houdini plugin so that I could procedurally create more terrain if needed.
