Even this old stuff! :) I noticed one of the screenshots, https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/polycount/halo4/m80a.jpg REALLY reminded me of DOOM 3 and I checked and sure enough Kenneth Scott was a senior art director on…
How can I model this ruin? I'm currently working on creating old ruins and would love to understand the process for making this using Maya and ZBrush, texturing in substance.

I was just finishing up high school and working on getting into the game industry around that time :) It was really exciting to watch the community figure out workflows for normal mapping, as resources were pretty limited back then. I think it was basically Crytek's MAX plug-in, Nvidia's…
