Ben Kleber - 3D Environment Artist
This game map for the upcoming FPS Tactical Intervention was started in the Summer of 2009 and finally completed in 2010. The architecture in this environment was inspired by a visit to Gyeongbokgung, the main palace of the Joseon Dynasty in Korea.
The buildings' geometry and colouring is largely true to their real-life counterpart. Although fictional, the layout of this environment uses elements found in the real palace, and my goal was to blend this with excellent playability and great visuals.
The environment was created in 3DS max, with texture builds being completed in Photoshop. It was assembled in Valve Hammer Editor on the Valve Source (OB) Engine.
Please find in-game screenshots to the right. Renders of models used in this environment are also displayed.
