Aphelion - The Outpost - Modular Kit

To create the Outpost, I built a modular kit made of different “slices” that could snap together easily, allowing us to iterate quickly and optimize the environment efficiently.

The machines were also designed as a versatile modular kit, giving me many possible combinations to speed up the level art production. Since these machines appear throughout the entire game, I created a circular frame variation for this level so they could fit naturally along the curved walls.

I used trimsheet textures for the walls, floors, and ceilings of the outpost, but I textured the machine props in Substance 3D Painter to achieve a higher level of detail. I also used smart materials to maintain visual consistency across all the assets.

A part of the details on the walls was made by my talented colleague
