Job Description

Splash Damage is looking for an exceptionally skilled 3D Environment Artist for a team focused on our new and exciting, yet to be announced project. The ideal candidate must be able to demonstrate in their portfolio a varied degree of modeling - especially hard-surface high-poly architectural modeling - and a strong texturing capability. It is essential to have a solid grasp of form, colour and light for both 2D and 3D art assets. The 3D environment artist must also have experience working well in a team and help mentoring junior artists.

Essential Skills and Experience

• Example work demonstrating skills in high-poly hard-edged modeling
• Experience working closely with a Lead Artist and Art Director in developing a unique and cohesive modeling and texturing style for environments
• The ability to prototype and problem solve
• Excellent eye for light, colour and detail in modeling high-poly to bake down to low-poly models
• A superb eye for form, colour and silhouette, plus the ability to add weight to your work by showing a good knowledge of how things are constructed or work, both organically and architecturally
• A strong communicator, who is self-motivated, and is proactive, as well as a good team player
• Skills in either traditional arts architecture or a design-related equivalent

Preferred Skills and Experience

• A background in Architecture
• A good understanding of lighting
• Experience with working in Unreal
• Having shipped an AAA title before
• Texture painting skills
