🚀 Gray Zone — Fourth Asset Pack (Unreal Engine Update)

We’re happy to share the fourth asset pack from Gray Zone, now fully adapted for Unreal Engine.

This time, we prepared a fortification set — perfect for building defensive positions, RTS maps, and military-style environments.

The pack includes:

🔹 fortification structures
🔹 defensive turrets
🔹 crates and support props

The goal was simple: create assets that are easy to use in-engine and help build scenes quickly without unnecessary setup.

Everything is optimized for real-time use and designed with UE workflows and lighting in mind.

What would you use this set for — an RTS battlefield, base defense, or something else? 👀

🚀 Gray Zone — Third Asset Pack (Unreal Engine Update)

We’ve just released our third asset pack from Gray Zone, now fully adapted for Unreal Engine.

The idea behind this one was simple — make assets that you can drop into a scene and they just work.

What’s inside:

🔹 production-ready assets
🔹 clean geometry and solid structure
🔹 optimized for real-time use
🔹 built with UE lighting in mind

No unnecessary complexity — just assets you can actually use without wasting time fixing things.

With each pack, we’re trying to improve not just visuals, but how everything behaves inside the engine.

We’re excited to share our latest update 🙌

This time, we brought new life to the second asset set from our game Gray Zone — turning it into a modular kit focused on ancient ruins environments.

The pack includes:
🔹 79 unique meshes
🔹 modular building elements
🔹 everything you need to create abandoned temple ruins

After importing everything into Unreal Engine 5, the assets immediately felt more alive. Updated lighting and rendering really helped bring out the materials and overall mood.

What would you build with this set — a forgotten temple, a battlefield, or something else? 👀

We’re excited to share our latest update 🙌

This time we brought new life to the assets from our game Gray Zone — refreshing both their presentation and their production potential.

The set includes:
🔹 30 individual objects
🔹 29 modular building parts
🔹 1 large hero building

The idea behind this kit is simple:
give artists the freedom to create a wide variety of building variations quickly and efficiently.

After importing everything into Unreal Engine 5, the assets immediately gained more depth and atmosphere thanks to updated lighting and rendering. We also revisited the original concept art to better match our current visual direction.

💡 Asset Creation | Part Two

We’re excited to share the next update on our assets for a larger ongoing project.

This time we’re showing rusted lamps and a hotel sign, focusing on materials, wear, and overall atmosphere.
All images were rendered in real time in Unreal Engine 5, so what you see is exactly how these assets look in-engine.

More updates coming soon — feel free to share your thoughts in the comments 👇

💡 A Simple Tip We All Forget

Here’s a quick lesson from our pipeline that’s easy to overlook:

👉 Always test your asset in the engine where it will be used.

We’re currently working on a lamp asset and decided to experiment by baking it without hard edges.
The idea was simple: hard edges need UV seams to avoid artifacts (see image 1), and more seams mean less usable UV space.

At first, everything looked great.
The bake was clean in Blender and Substance Painter, with no visible issues (see image 2).

But once we tested the asset in Unreal Engine, the problem showed up:
⚠️ lighting-related shading artifacts that weren’t visible in the DCC tools (see image 2).

If we hadn’t checked the asset early in Unreal and had jumped straight into polishing textures and hand-edited masks, we would’ve discovered the issue much later — and had to redo those masks from scratch.

By validating the bake early, we were able to adjust the setup in time and get a clean, artifact-free result (see image 3).

Takeaway:
Test early.

Concept Level Up

Sometimes moving forward doesn’t mean starting over.
Sometimes it means going back — and doing it better.

This time we revisited one of our older concepts from the “Gray Zone” and gave it a proper level up. With fresh eyes, more experience, and a clearer direction, we pushed the idea toward a cleaner, more modern look.

Old concepts can age surprisingly well — if you give them the attention they deserve.

👉 Do you ever rework old ideas, or do you prefer leaving them in the past?

🚘🔥 Vehicle Creation — Part One

We’re kicking off a small series of posts showing how this vehicle is being made.
Here you can see the high-poly version of the model — this is where we lock in the shapes, proportions, and main details.

Next stop 👉 ZBrush, where things will get even more detailed.
