PLANET OF THE APES - THE MINIATURES BOARDGAME

I created all the miniatures, including the apes and soldiers, for this game, as well as many of the 2D graphics. The project is still in production and is expected to hit shelves in June 2025. All the characters were designed based on my observations from repeatedly binge-watching the movies, as well as the references provided to me by 20th Century Fox. The turntables created by Weta Digital were especially helpful in supporting my 3D conception and adaptation of the film characters into small tabletop game pieces.

Although the game has not been released yet, at the time 20th Century Fox was acquired by Disney, all the work I completed had been validated and copyrighted by the company. I am pleased to have the right to share it, at least partially, in my portfolio. Here are some of the miniatures that have been painted and displayed at game conventions since the beginning of this production around 2018.

I created the miniatures for this released game based on the specifications I was provided.

I have a strong affinity for buggy cars, so I created this buggy from scratch using various reference pictures of this type of vehicle. I used Blender for all the polygon modeling and UV mapping processes, and I utilized Substance 3D for baking the input maps and texturing. Additionally, I used ZBrush to sculpt parts with higher levels of detail to incorporate into the normal map. I created the number plate graphics in Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. I also experimented with some HDR environment maps and performed 3D rendering using Iray. My goal was to replicate the sparkling blue paint of the reference cars I used.

Sonic Super Teams

I created all the miniatures for this Sonic tabletop game, released in Europe, using 3D sculpting and printing technologies, combined with my traditional art and molding skills. I also completed the retopology of the meshes for these 8 characters and handled the texturing to support the teaser.

Mitch Pigs Demo

Here is a short demo I created from scratch to explore the new update of Unreal Engine 5. My goal was to push the boundaries of my technical knowledge by utilizing Lumen for lighting, along with many other software tools I generally use for video games and real-time rendering. I sculpted the pigs based on a concept art piece I discovered while watching the Instagram artist Mitch Leeuwe. I really enjoy his overall cartoon style, which reminds me of the Preston Blair animation books that I’m particularly fond of. This inspiration led me to create a 3D version of this cute little pig.

I created some of the merchandise pieces for this game using 3D sculpting and printing technologies, along with my traditional art and molding skills. I'm excited to share pictures of this released game so that we can fully appreciate its high-end and polished quality in every aspect through these visuals. I was also fortunate to collaborate with two amazing and talented illustrators, FORTIFEM. In the last picture, you can see them on the wooden floor surrounded by their craft. As I admire their graphic art and believe in the value of working with great artists, I’ve posted the illustrations they created for the cards and packaging, as it provides a better sense of the overall game quality. They produced both colored and black-and-white versions, and I really love the result of this project, which was created by Maxime Le Dain and published by Bragelonne Games.

Here are some miniatures I created based on my concept art for the board game Battle Zone. I sculpted them in ZBrush, using the same techniques employed by Avalanche Software for the creation of the Disney Infinity figures, which have always been a great inspiration for me in terms of design and game concepts. I also used KeyShot for the 3D rendering. Additionally, I designed some trading cards for the game, as shown.

Star Wars Super Teams

Mario is definitely one of my lifelong favorite characters, and I'm excited to present my work on him here. This includes high-definition sculpting and low-definition retopology using ZBrush. The blue and orange version shown is the HD model exported from ZBrush, which I rendered in KeyShot. The low-definition retopology is presented here as the final rendering, textured in Substance 3D and rendered in Iray.

Here is the Lapin Crétin I created based on the famous Ubisoft game character, which I like very much! I wanted to reproduce Ubisoft's techniques and art style to create another course for the Art and 3D class I teach. This presentation showcases the full process: I used ZBrush for sculpting, retopology, and UV mapping; texturing in Substance 3D; rigging and skinning in Blender; and finally, I created a short animated sequence in Unreal Engine 5, incorporating some post-processing effects to enhance the clip's appeal. I also handled the video editing in Adobe Premiere Pro, adding the original soundtrack from the Raving Rabbids that I downloaded
