Take a look at the GoW cave level if you haven't already. This was by far one of the best looking cave levels I'd ever seen in a game. Here's a screenshot, but it doesn't really do the scene much justice. Nevertheless, there's a huge, factory-esque structure in it. You may notice when you play the game how it's constantly…

I’d really like to transition into the gaming industry, ideally as a prop artist. Lately I’ve been applying but not getting any callbacks, so I…
