Lance Muir's Witch's Den And Tank Shooter Game.

Show-casing work from our first year students on the UCLan Games Design course. This selection is from Lance Muir who has now completed his first year of study on our games design course.

The first image is a selection of 3D props that Lance created in Autodesk Maya and textured in Adobe Photoshop.
The Diorama scene is a Witch's Den populated with 3D props that are textured in Adobe Photoshop and also baked in Substance Painter to
create normal maps for additional layered materials.
