After a few weeks of work, I’m happy to finally share this Silent Hill 1 fan art.
I created a similar project a few years ago, but playing the Silent Hill 2 remake really inspired me to learn more about volumetric fog in UE5.
So yes, this is heavily inspired by the visuals of SH2 Remake.
For the color grading, I tried to stay close to the look of the original Silent Hill 1 on PlayStation 1. I also experimented with a mix of distance fields and 3D flowmaps for the fog to make it feel like it stick and climb to the buildings.
Here's a video showcasing the environment with animated fog :
