Something is brewing

Hello everyone.
This piece is my submission for the monthly challenge of the "Lighting Bot" discord server.
The theme for the challenge was "Toxic" and we had no restrictions how to interpret it.
Since I am a giant fan of Godzilla movies and Half Life games, I got the idea to mix them both. I wanted to create a giant, industrial looking warehouse, where the scientists are observing the creature they have created, much like in the movie "Godzilla vs Kong".
I have used the assets from the Science Laboratory environment, from the Unreal Market place, the Realistic starter VFX pack for the smoke as well as some textures from Megascans.
The lighting is real time, using Lumens and I have created the animated volumetric fog on the ground and the simple light fixtures using the Unreal's modeling tools. One thing I wanted to practice was using the 60-30-10 rule for the lighting balance.
I want to give a big thanks to my good friend Olgierd Kolev who gave me really good feedback along the way :)
I had a blast doing this challenge and I hope you like it.
