GRAEME GORDON
‘The White Emperor’ Character Concept Sculpt
The primary focus of this project was to demonstrate the production pipeline involved in the field of 3D creature design. After the concept was established, the processes of UV baking, retopology, painting, texturing and lighting was explored.
‘The White Emperor’ Detail
It was important to the artist to demonstrate an ability to capture likenesses. Accurately representing a specific individual is widely appreciated as one of the more difficult areas of sculpture to achieve and therefore serves as a suitable indicator of his ability.
THOMAS INDER

This project was about understanding and creating a playable level which compliments a series of mechanics from a traditional third person shooter.
Temple Map Layout, further in development
I experimented with different AI attributes/abilities to see how these changes could influence the layouts of the map, based on player testing and interactions.

I experimented with different types of lighting in my scene to try and create a completely different mood and feel.
