Sword Coast Legends Environments

I was responsible for creating the majority of the outdoor natural environments in Sword Coast Legends, from expansive zones to smaller encounter areas. I created most of the landscapes, rocks, plants, trees, ground materials, roads, ground decals, prop placement, etc in these outdoor areas.

Sword Coast Legends also has randomly generated dungeon layouts built from tile sets of premade dungeon rooms and hallways. I created the visual target tiles for many of these tile sets. These visual target tiles were used by outsourcing and fellow artists as the cornerstone asset to build out the rest of the tiles for the dungeon. I also built out many of the non visual target tiles.

I created this cliff side area that ended up being used in a lot of marketing. I especially enjoyed creating the hawk that flies various paths along this cliff. I ended up creating all of the coastlines in the game.

I created the basic look and feel for the crystal podium, as well as the ground modeling, texturing, lighting in this final boss level. I created the wispy fog effect and a script that makes the candles tip over and snuff out when bumped into.
