Hello everyone, I am entering this contest as a solo participant working on an environment. This is my first contest so please feel free to critique anything.
For my project I am doing an escape on the mental side rather than the physical. Something that always stood out to me as a way to escape reality is a good book, and it is something I would like to reflect in my work.
I am doing a large, old library with a bit of a twist. Some of the aisles are going to be changed to reflect some fantastic scenarios. Right now I have an overgrown jungle, an ancient temple, and some kind of sci-fi planned, but things may change as I go on.
Here are some references I am using for the library/woodwork portion of the library:

I am not working from any specific concept, so many things are changing as I go on. From here I have some models already in the Unreal Engine:



I am still learning a lot about working in the Unreal engine and realtime in general, so this is going to be a lot of good experience for me. My lightmaps are still looking a bit wonky and I have a lot more to do, but I will be updating as frequently as I can with highpolys, lowpolys, and textures.
