Blender to Unreal Engine 5 — 3D Props - Medieval Gallows

Welcome to part 1 of a medieval game assets 3D modeling series.

In this part, we will be creating a set of medieval gallows with aged wooden planks and rope. Our focus will be on building a simple wooden structure for our gallows, followed by modeling a rope and then adding realism to it. We will also be making sure that the floor platform planks are cut the right way so that they can collapse in a believable way when the execution lever is pulled down.

We will also see how to use keyframes to key in different animations to the parts we want to animate. Then, we will learn about specific types of in-built Blender lighting functionalities that will enhance the scary and dark feeling of your medieval gallows.

In the final section, we will deep-dive into Epic’s all-new Unreal Engine 5. We will learn everything right from importing animations from Blender to having them work correctly in UE5 to rendered in real-time and creating our own portfolio gradient skybox!

By the end of this course, you will be able to create a 3D medieval gallows asset for your game.

key features
Maximizing the potential of your references to develop strong game asset concepts * Discovering the basics of rigging and animating inanimate game assets in Blender * Learning how to use HDRIs as 3D model backgrounds for your portfolio
approach
This hands-on course will provide you with intensive learning all in one place, giving you access to over six textures and 48 texture maps at 4k resolution. This course will also teach you the basics of making your own materials and shaders using these textures and all about gamma, hue, and saturation. In this course, we will be using Bender 2.90 and Unreal Engine 5.
audience
This course is designed for beginners or mid-level 3D modelers, who want to learn how to build medieval-themed AAA game-ready assets such as fully animated medieval gallows with Blender and then import them into Unreal Engine 5.
