Warhammer 40k Shrine
Summery
This environment focuses on a hard-surface indoor setting. Inspired by Warhammer 40k, it is a shrine for the Adeptus Mechanicus faction.
​
In this environment, I created a modular set for reuseblit, Unreal PCG, tileable textures, and blueprints for modular props.
​
I will take you through the process of creating this environment from scratch.
Concepting
I created a similar environment when I first started with Gnomon; this was the first game environment I ever built. It was a great exercise, but it didn't achieve what I really wanted to make due to my lack of skill and knowledge.
​
For this new environment, I want to make a bigger, better version of this old environment with all the new skills and knowledge I have learned.
Reference
Warhammer 40k is famous for its dark, gothic architectural style combined with a retro sci-fi aesthetic. ​
​​
I gathered a variety of Gothic church references and vintage technology from the space race during the Cold War. I feel that these old space techs vibe well with the Warhammer 40k aesthetic. And of course, I gathered a ton of references from Warhammer 40k games and arts, especially from Space Marine 2.
Modular Kit Overview
This is the kit that builds out the whole environment. As one of my goals for this project was to create a modular kit, it has achieved its purpose.

Modular Floor Kit
Arch elevator shafts
I use a Ureal PCG spline blue print for the railing which making placing the railing simple and fast to iterate.
Railing
Candle Holder and Candles
Set Dressing Props
Same with the railings, I mode out one secretion then use the PCG spline mesh to create the cables.
The Shrine
This is a super computer for the Adeptus Mechanicus (Cult of the Machine) faction in Warhammer 40k universe. This faction worships a machine god and believes all machines are govern by the machine god. And in this environment this computer is a holy shrine for them to worship.
