Cowboys & Aliens

The Concept

Cowboys & Aliens is an original concept, but had a lot of inspiration from a variety of media including, the  unpredictable world of Red Dead Redemption, Jordan Peele's "Nope", and a variety of Western paintings.

The Breakdown

For this project, I used Gaea to create the mountains, Substance Designer to create tileable textures, Maya to model modular assets, and finally, sculpted in Zbrush to create a more lived-in environment.​

Lighting

I loved the idea of incorporating both warm and cool lighting and, in this piece, I did this by juxtaposing the warmth of Christmas to the impending threat of the spaceship.
