Winter Graveyard - Level Design and Art

A personal project I made in my spare time.
My goal was to create an interesting level from "gray box" to the final "game-ready" scene and add a cold and lonely atmosphere there but not make it dark. I was so inspired by playing Uncharted 4 recently that I decided to use the Scotland location as a reference.
The first part of the level is windy and narrow to highlight the uncomfortable and unfriendly atmosphere of this place. The second part is calm but oppressive—it's a graveyard. Finally, the third is more tranquil, snowy, and expansive (there is no need to survive on tight, snowy rocks).The last part is also the final destination; it keeps some puzzles inside (one head of a sculpture is lost).
All assets and materials are from the Megascans and the Epic Games Store:
