Following my previous post, I have looked at what vehicles are set in over games. I will definitely be using an open plan space as this will give a nice space to view the vehicles from every angle. 
As the vehicles I am focusing on are horseboxes, this gives me a 'Theme' in some respect, I was originally thinking of making a stable yard with the vehicles placed around and shown in a 'working' styled environment but thought otherwise as it would take too much attention away from the vehicles. Also I want to import the scene into Unreal Development Kit, this engine benefits more of an enclosed environment inside instead of outside. 



The plan that I have thought of is very simple. A wooden barn to keep the connection between stable and horses or a farm yard. The vehicles will be placed within the barn/garage. There will be smaller assets around the walls and edges of the barn to help create an atmosphere of working/used. Also adding assets also shows that it isn't just an empty barn with cars in it, (seems kind of pointless and boring).

For the lighting, I have chosen the barn because of the wooden slates across the front and the back. I would like natural light to come through the gaps and onto the vehicles aswell as lights on the inside.
