Mt. Kadar Vista for the Ice Skiff section. This one was a quick job at the end of the project so it's entirely matte painted. No 3D bases here! This was the only vista element I was responsible for in this area, all others were created by Olivier Dubard!
Thanks to Kurt Kupser for this Reveal Gif, and for sharing some of his ZBrush techniques throughout the project!

Early concepts for a vista which was initially going to be deep beneath the glacier. We ended up closing that section off.
The mountain was created entirely with photo Matte painting techniques and Maya adjustments to the underlying mesh. It was imperative that we keep the overall design and shape in alignment with what had been there previously, and what was in other levels like the Hope facility.
The awesome skybox, and all other vista elements in the Ice Skiff area were crafted by another Vista artist on our team, Olivier Dubard!
