From Concept to In-Game Asset
A brief look into the process of designing, modeling, and texturing an NPC Merchant Outfit in Ilysia.
It begins with our concept artist developing several variations of the outfit, exploring different designs to find the one that best fits the world of Ilysia. Once a final design is approved, the concept artist collaborates with the character artist assigned to bring the outfit to life. During this meeting, they discuss the overall style, key details, and any considerations that may arise during the creation process.
The character artist then translates the approved design into a 3D model, carefully crafting the outfit to ensure it meets both aesthetic and practical needs. Once the modeling and texturing are complete, the outfit undergoes a review process. Here, the team evaluates it for visual consistency and readiness for integration into the game. When the outfit passes review, it officially becomes an in-game asset, ready to enhance the world and bring its NPCs to life.
Thank you for your continued support and enthusiasm as we build this incredible world together. Your feedback and passion inspire us daily, and we’re committed to delivering an experience that exceeds expectations.
Until next time… adventure awaits!
