Project Copernicus
This is an unreleased game from 38 Studios based on the Kingdoms of Amalur Story line (AKA Reckoning). The story backbone was written by R. A. Salvatore, and we had periodic visits and critiques from the overall art direction of Todd McFarlane.
I worked there for just under a year which ended in the unfortunate shut down of the company founded by Curt Schilling. Although he is a controversial figure in the media, he was a generous and kind man to me and I liked working for him. It would have been a solid game. A strong team of motivated people there and I was proud to be a part of it. the Image I used at left is by Jesse James Mooney.
I only include a few examples of UVs as it was all conforming to the well made atlas system set up before I was hired.

The Tuatha was the very first model I made for them. They told me they where happy I caught the tone very quickly. I was happy too.

The concept art
This was a breakdown of the modular armor bits I made. I did not make the character.
This worm creature would pop out of the ground, hence the half a body
Here is the mesh
Here is the Zbrush version
The worms tint map
This is fairly monochrome to better assist the tinting choices. All assets had this cream colored starting point
Worm NM

I volunteered to make a few of the weapons needed. From concepts from our weapons team.
