A few of my favorite of our environment shots from Sword of the Sea
Reminder that I'm looking for work as an Environment Artist or 3D Artist 🙂

A screenshot of "Sword of the Sea". The image is of a sandy landscape with statues and flags submerged in sand. In the distance you can see a temple and a large triangular shaped mountain.

A screenshot of "Sword of the Sea". The image is of a temple with red brick, covered in foliage. There is a half pipe in the center.

A screenshot of "Sword of the Sea". The image is of an ethereal blue landscape with floating islands, a ghostly bridge, and a large triangle structure on top of a mountain.

A screenshot of "Sword of the Sea". The image is of two large armored warriors in a frozen landscape. One is buried beneath the snow with only its hand clawing towards the viewer. There is a beam of light coming from one of the warriors eyes.

#art #oc #ocsky

A digital half-body artwork of a Brown character with feminine features and long wavy turquoise-colored hair. They're facing the camera with a slight smile, with their right hand on a thigh. They're wearing a red broken heart top with pink chains, a short skirt and leg fishnets. They also have a black latex glove on their left arm and a fishnet with floral patterns on their right arm. They wear two different earrings - three red hearts going vertically and a golden eye with a circle outside of it.
The background is beige with a subtle warm light thrown on the character. There's a visible character's silhouette behind them. End ID.

TLOU with Sarah. Had to put the game down for 3 hrs, I was so sad.

Then TLOU2 made me cry because my dog is in it and you can kill him, and I was responsible for adding gore and blood to all dogs, including Alice (I'm ok!). That said, I'm still very proud of my work.

Hot, messy and queer normative--#Spitfire is a story for people who want to see bodies & brains like theirs in high fantasy romance.

If you like yearning, spicy sex scenes that leave the awkward bits in, and romance featuring fat and neurodivergent characters, this is your book.

If only 😭 I also feel the same way of having to know UE5; I've only worked in proprietary tools professionally and not UE5. But, if we shipped games using in-house tools, shouldn't that be viable enough to ship something in UE5 as well?

Natalie Lucht @natalielucht.bsky.social · Sep 5

I'm having the opposite experience; studios I see hiring for VFX want stylized and my portfolio is just realism. 😅

An illustration of Rumi from KPOP Demon Hunters, in her demon form. She's wearing a black hanbok with a leather belt, chains, and leather gloves. A veil is obscuring part of her face, with only one gold eye peaking through. Her long braid hanging over one shoulder.

Magik, Queen of Limbo.

I wanted to approach this piece a little differently than I normally would and set it up like a Magic the Gathering card, going for a more moody scene. It ended up being tons of fun to work on

Magik sits on a throne, sword by her side. Shes lit by several candelabras and her shadow is that of the darkchylde creeping behind the throne.
