This is a collaborative project I made with my colleague Alex Savoie-Laflamme for my final semester in university. The goal of our project was to create a route 66-inspired desert environment based on the American southwest, with a mid-century aesthetic. I was responsible for creating the gas station building, the gas pump, the AC unit as well the foliage in the scene. The level art, lighting and post-process was made collaboratively with my teammate. My main goal in this project was to further familiarize myself with environment creation by learning how to create foliage in SpeedTree and by trying techniques such as trim sheet creation, vertex painting, etc. to create buildings.
