Hello Polycount! I am a freshly graduated environment artist from germany and am building up my portfolio so I can hopefully start working in the industry soon. This gas station should be the main piece in my portfolio, among a small diorama and few materials. The main idea is that there is this gas station with an old…
Hi everyone, I've been out of the personal work game for a while, I've spent the last 4 years making ships for Total War; however, I just recently married and moved across the pond to Morristown NJ, where the new scenery has inspired me to create a project in summary of my first month here, and to begin rebuilding my…

This means that periods of quick iteration involve a lot of moving in and out of the headset. Make a change, check it in VR, adjust, check again. Repeat until your perfect hairdo is ruined and…
I think as a whole the presentation is really nice. Big clear buttons with lots of pictures in each link. Might be good to put your e-mail on the front page. As for the work. 1.
