This is some environment work I did on the Blizzard World map for Overwatch. I was mainly working on the Starcraft area, from the initial block out to the final product. Gaëtan Montaudouin created the Siegetank as well as finalized the Ghost Academy and the Crystal for the Pylon. More images can be found on my artstation.…
Hello Polycounters! For this throne room challenge, my accomplice and I want to do a combination of organic and man made materials to show off the diversity of Substance, as well as help bolster our skill sets as we transition to the PBR workflow in UE4. We have arrived on a blend of scifi era construction technology and…
Hey everyone. I'm going to give this contest a shot and see how I do against all these talented artists, animators, and VFX guru's. First off, here are a few sketches I've been making to get my thought juices flowing. I've decided to go with a water theme to guide my design and I am toying around with some idea's that I…
so your crystal ball told you this about win9 and the only way to stop this is to not use Win8 or what solution do you propose?

We must be going to different Creativeheads sites, because jobs have actually been pretty slim in the area and they've hardly been entry level. From my experience job hunting in the Bay Area has been rather.. brutal. There are very few entry level jobs and we've had a lot of layoffs in the area (LucasArts, Factor5, EA,…
A few months ago I rendered out a phone I made in 3ds max and now I'm revisiting it again so I can touch up on some of the issues I have with it. One of them being that whenever I render out the passes, the text on the phone don't come out as clear as what the texture I put on it is. Diffuse: Reflection: Specular: Final: I…
