updated my work list on my portfolio with a few examples of art I did for the game I worked on. Trylogy Tower Defense Hybrid by Global Games Entertainment. My role consisted of level Design, modeling, texturing, particle FX, some Character work, animating, and some terrain work (some of the stuff you see in the screenshots in the project link)

I also have completed logo design for them which consisted of both 3D/2D rendered images to be used in game website as well as other promotional assets. The game is still not finished so I am limited in what I can provide as samples, but these were allowed for permission so as to give a taste of the work I provided.

there are other assets, levels and general 3D work I did, but I felt these would suffice for now until I received more permission to display work I provided to them.

• Animations will be utilizing Motion capture using Rokoko Smartsuit MoCap system along with keyframing, clean up, and refinement of animation sets creating a more dynamic on the fly system for player to player interaction e.g. tackling, sacking, throwing, catching, fumbling, scrimmage actions, etc.

3D Interior work I completed on "13th Doll". Mix of Modeling, Optimization, restructing/remodeling of assets that were either not up to standard, or no had corrupted issues due to legacy export formats. Often remodeled, completely redid the UVmaps to more optimized layout in 0,1 UVs. Completed majority if not all of texturing within Substance painter 2018+. Then took the given assets placed in Unity engine, applied textures, shaders, and adjusted values specific to the surface given. e.g. specularity, gloss, roughness, albedo etc. Also lit the scene given criteria specific from the client with room for creative license along with use of mild use of Post processing effects, e.g. bloom, ambient occlusion etc.
Now released on steam. Along with Axis Football 2018, 2019, this will make at least 3 game projects that have been released utilizing my work.  I am available for work so feel free to contact me via Skype (sgtkoolaid) or via email ) terravelo@gmail.com. I hope to hear from you soon. I look forward to working on a project that will challenge me as  an artist.
