Hi everyone, I have gone back and enhanced one of my older projects.
You can see how it looked like before in the link below:

The brief for this project was to recreate an environment from any old game. The game I have chosen is Mafia The City of Lost Heaven.
I have been meaning to return to this one for a while as I knew that I can push it further. Main changes are texture replacement on the buildings, prop placement, additional props, light set up and weather effects. Some assets, such as the building on the left, went through some 3D editing as well. The pathway around the building on the left was re-worked.
Weather effects were done using this plugin:
