Check Out This Vibrant Arcane Fan Art Made with Substance 3D & UE5

Take a look at this bright and stylish Arcane-inspired artwork, Arcane Anomaly, created by Shady Tantawy, a Technical Artist at Barrel Roll Games. The work was setup with Substance 3D Designer and Unreal Engine 5. The post-processing of the anomaly included Chromatic Abberration.

"The show captivated me with its art and emotion, and I couldn't resist creating this fan art as a token of appreciation. Hope it resonates with you as much as it did with me! I wanted to create my own version of the Anomaly/Wild Rune in Realtime inside Unreal," the artist shares.
