In this episode, I’m joined by Sisilia Nedyalkova, a 3D Environment Artist, to talk about what it really takes to build environments for games and break into the industry.
We discuss:
• How environment artists approach building game worlds
• The difference between art school and learning online
• Portfolio advice for aspiring game artists
• The mindset needed to improve as an artist
• Challenges of entering the game industry
• Environment art workflows and tools
• Learning 3D art through personal projects
If you're interested in environment art, game art, or starting a career in the games industry, this conversation dives into the realities of the craft and the journey behind it.
