- Create high-quality 3D foliage assets, ensuring proper integration while considering technical and gameplay constraints.
- Analyse, plan, and collect references for the assets while adapting to the project’s style.
- Work with Technical Artists to define and implement procedural rules, bringing our Open World to life.
- Actively seek feedback from Lead Artist, and Art Director to continuously improve and maintain high-quality standards.
- A portfolio demonstrating strong artistic abilities, specifically highlighting nature and vegetation assets.
- Proficiency in SpeedTree, robust 3D software (3D Studio Max, Blender, etc.), and Photoshop.
- Strong understanding of artistic composition, form, colour theory, light, and detail.
- Solid knowledge of PBR workflow and shader techniques.
