The cabin structure is based on the references we gathered from the Pacific Northwest. The idea was to make a Ranger cabin that can be used in multiple locations in the game. In addition, I studied timber construction videos and details to learn the basic concept of timber architecture. It was challenging to construct the building with a modular kit considering the architectural guidelines and gameplay layouts. I invested quality time in collecting references for architectural modeling kits, initial blockout to test gameplay metrics, set dressing, level layout refinements and providing a briefing to our outsourcing partners for final assets and material deliverables
I can't thank enough to our principal artists Markus Lappalainen, Nazareno Urbano and our Art Director, Janne Pulkkinen for guiding me through the whole process.
Thanks and three cheers to our Outsourcing partners for their outstanding work.
Big shout out to my team and the people listed below for their collaboration on these environments.
