Ghost Lake is a project I have been working on in my personal time. My former lead at Mountaintop, Andy Kreutzer, told me to improve my Unreal Material Skills. I thought a fun challenge would be to create an Ice Material. Once I finished the Ice Material I tried to make a Foliage Material with wind. I then created a Landscape Master with Height Blended Snow. Pretty soon an environment was taking shape so I setup a very simple composition block-out. This ended up being alot more work then I had originally intended, but such is the way of things when you start experimenting in uncharted territory. Needless to say this has been a learning experience for me.
I have to thank Tim Simpson who came in clutch helping me with the lighting. I am also very grateful to have had solid feedback from Andy Kreutzer, Jeff Horal, Esteban Chaidez, and Ranko Prozo.
I was highly inspired by the game Wayfinder.

The jetty was a bit confusing at first sight as it looks a bit like stairs. Or is it stairs? The snowdrifts pattern seems to ignore the jetty and its pillars as well.
