Witch Tower

Witch towers are a crazy remnant of a truly insane part of German history. I grew up with a few of them around and always thought it referred to the tower a witch lived in until we went inside one.... It's a huge multi story torture chamber. A very tall and spooky piece of propaganda. Don't say the church never did nothing for you :D

This is my first project assembled and rendered with Unreal Engine 5. I had a great time putting everything together, even though I had to trouble shoot a lot. Especially the particle systems and animations gave me quite a bit of trouble. The amount of geometry you can throw at it is quite remarkable. I loved how easy it was to modify the weather and lighting in real time. I will certainly continue using UE.
I used the Auto-Building add on by Julien Gauthier to put together the buildings using my own assets. It is it's own thing to nerd out in, but I didn't take too much time with it and ended up modifying some of the provided houses.
