Senior Environment & Level Artist (Battlefield, Borderlands) | World Building & 3D Mentorship
About this Mentorship:
Hi there! Whether you are a Junior aiming to land your first AAA studio job, an indie dev looking to polish your portfolio, or an artist who wants to master the technical and artistic workflows of high-end environment creation, you are in the right place.
I have over 11 years of experience in the game dev industry, working as a Senior Environment and Level Artist on AAA franchises like Battlefield and Borderlands. I bridge the gap between macro World Building and micro 3D asset creation, meaning I can help you understand not just how to make a beautiful prop, but how to compose, optimize, and deliver a fully functional level.
What we can do during our sessions:
Portfolio & Skill Teardown: I will review your work, point out exact areas for improvement, and tell you what Art Directors are currently looking for in top-tier studios.
Technical & Artistic Feedback: We can dive into Unreal Engine 5 workflows, composition, set dressing, lighting, and performance optimization.
Organic Sculpting & Asset Creation: If you want to focus on the micro-level, I can guide you through high-quality asset creation using ZBrush, Maya, and Blender.
Industry & Career Prep: If your art is already advanced, we will focus on your CV, LinkedIn presentation, B2B/freelance positioning, and how to successfully pass art tests and studio interviews.
Mentoring sessions happen via Discord call with screen-sharing. If you want to see the level of work we will be aiming for, visit my ArtStation: https://www.artstation.com/irensay
