Weapon 3D-Artist for "Vildie"

Mar 2023 - Oct 2023 • 7 mos

I collaborated with Chaotic Minds studio on their title Vilde, creating production-ready weapon models based on 2D concept art, as well as refining and fixing environment assets (bridges, stairs, etc.). Here is my step-by-step pipeline to ensure high-quality, engine-ready assets: 1. Concept Analysis & Blockout: I review the provided 2D concepts, analyze technical requirements, and build a primary 3D blockout to check proportions, silhouette, and scale. 2. Midpoly & Highpoly Sculpting: I create detailed midpoly forms and transition into sculpting in ZBrush to add realistic damage, wear, and fine details. 3. Retopology: Crafting an optimized low-poly mesh focused on efficient polygon count and clean edge flow for flawless animation and deformation. 4. UV Unwrapping & Packing: Maximizing texel density and organizing UV islands efficiently to reduce wasted texture space. 5. Baking: Baking maps (Normal, Ambient Occlusion, Curvature, ID) using clean high-to-low poly projection without visual artifacts. 6. Texturing (PBR): Creating realistic, detailed PBR textures (Substance Painter) tailored to the game’s artistic style and lore. 7. Engine-Ready Export: Final mesh optimization, correct pivot placement, appropriate naming conventions, and exporting texture maps ready for seamless engine import (Unreal Engine / Unity). Bonus: I also handle environment asset polish and minor mesh fixes (e.g., modular bridges, stairs, structural elements) to ensure seamless integration into game levels.
