Modular Environment Sets

In my own time I've been doing some freelance environment game art for an indy developer making up modular low poly, painted tile sets.  I thought I'd share some below, I'll keep adding images as I go.

Mech Mice Game Assets

I thought I'd share some of the assets I modeled, UV'd and texture painted for Mech Mice.  I have some others that I should have permissions to put up in the very near future that I'll add to this post but thought I'd start up with a couple of the smaller ones for now..







New Portfolio Site Live

My new portfolio website is up and running at www.shemdawson.com .

The international hosting service I'm using approached me to feature it on their own site, thanks guys!

Here are some of the final shots from the UDK scene.  For now Im going to call it done - at a later point I'd like to add in some further points of interest and expand the zone a bit more.

Mech Mice Game Trailers

This is one of the 3 game trailers we made at Oktobor to go along with the launch of Mech Mice, the online game our studio created the art assets for. For the trailer I was one of two texture artists.  

Some of the textures specifically created by me were the characters suit, the background environment, floor and the game pieces along with the animated Mech Mice logo.

I'll link the others as they get released.

Painted Low Poly Pine Trees

I've made up some pine tree assets for personal project I'm currently working on. I built them modular with the branches and fronds able to be plugged into the trunks so I can quickly make as many variants as I need.  Here are two large and two medium, they range from 1300 tris through to about 2000 for the large. They all share the same 512x1024 map.




I made some silver birches up too, around 1400 tris.

Tree Dwelling Concept

Got some time this weekend to paint up a concept of a tree dwelling I'm thinking about creating in 3D as a low poly game asset. I was quite happy with the end result and thought I'd share it.
