Here is my fan made version of the Peaks of Thangorodrim and the Hells of Angband, of course fully inspired by the Silmarillion, Unfinished Tales, Beren and Luthien, The Children of Hurin and the illustrations of Alan Lee in the books, with the touch of Mordor in the movies.
Buildings were modeled in Blender and textured in Substance Painter. The Landscapes made in Gaea and then textured in UE 5.5.4. The small VFX assets added are EasyFog by William Faucher and the volcano was made by me using Niagara Fluids, a simple large scale fire and smoke with 2 different caches. For the lighting i used UDS with a lot of tweeks in the clouds, the shadows and sun light.
Finally made the color grading and some compositing in DaVinci Resolve Studio 19, to enhance the scene.
The music was made by my friend @danielpuertamusic, you can find him on YouTube, Spotify and LinkedIn
Thanks for watching and thumbs up if you liked it!
