Splitgate 2 - Ozone (Tower POI Design and Exploration)
//Some of the work I did for the Tower POI on the Ozone map. There was a basic blockout of the tower already made by the LDs, so it was handed off to me to art it up and have it fit with the Aeros design language and the cruise ship/nautical theme of the map. I approached it as a multi-purpose ballroom/gym/events area.
//I'd also pitched the idea of having jerseys from classic Aeros Aces hung up on the walls.
//As for the exterior, I wanted to treat each side as where the Aces would exit from as a game is set to begin.
//Basketball hoop drone was not done by me.
//Brand graphics done by the graphic design team

A paintover to show what we might be able to add to the LD blockout of the tower.
Illustrating the color-blocking/theming for the "exterior" of the tower.
Some of the design sketches I did for how we can make the tower feel more Aeros-y.
Another shot to help environment artists see the layers on the "collar" of the tower (it's made up of about 3 years)
A display case that was meant to hold SSL/Aeros memorabilia.
Some notes to help sell the theming/purpose of the tower.
