M1A1 Abrams Tank with accompanying AGT1500 turbine engine renders.

Hello Steemit! This is my first post so bear with me if the formatting isn't on point.

I'm an artist specializing in 3d environments and have been in the video game industry for just over a decade now. In general Environment Artists are responsible for assets such as architecture, foliage, vehicles, terrain, props and accompanying textures / surfaces. In a AAA game studio however, things have become much more specialized, so in my off time I enjoy creating things which I don't get to work on during my day job as any particular project can last for a few years.

Anyways, I can elaborate about working in the gaming industry in another post but feel free to drop me a message as I would be more than glad to share my experiences and learnings, especially for anyone looking to become a full time artist.

I enjoy many genres; specifically sci-fi and fantasy. In this case I stepped into 'real world' which I have also enjoyed since a kid going to air shows and military museums. This particular project is specifically dedicate to a good friend of mine who used to operate these amazing machines.

I created this model using 3D Studio Max and Zbrush . I plan on texturing it eventually using Substance Designer and Painter. Until then here are my current renders with base materials.

Enjoy!
