This is such a shame, it is such exceptional work... Hopefully switching engines will allow the project to continue.

In that context, you can still show your work and would have still gained the experience. Nothing about that requires using someone else's IP, but it also isn't going to harm the IP holder like actually releasing such a project to the public would. Using copyrighted materials specifically for personal use or for school projects, both of which are never meant to be released to the public, are generally fair use. These projects were never intended to remain private.
