some old render tests, I think from when I was figuring out the style for Ramblemoor

I have a new website for my art, which is to say I have a website now: www.potterfield.art I've got some time coming up for part-time work. If you've got a project big or small, which needs environment art: 3D or visual development

screenshots of a collection of props: a retro airport lounge with an open briefcase overflowing with papers

Screenshot of a stylized environment, a watery alleyway leads to marble colonnaded arches against an painterly blue sky

I'm working on environment design for next Zium Exhibition, more details eventually. This poster shows the overworld which each artist's gallery is located within

A colorful poster depicting a mountainous landscape interspersed with architecture and infrastructural details, a white ribbon loops around the landscape. In the center is a tall triangular mountain.

@jpotterfield.bsky.social also made a poster for The Zium Digest, which in the back pages has some cameos from other collectives, and this was ours for The Zium. The image in this is the mountain from the new Zium from some early art tests. Adore this piece of art. Thank you, Jacob!

noodling a little more on the retro/dithered project. All the textures are derived from a hand-painted atlas. Aside from it being very efficient I enjoy the constraints/creativity of working this way

various squarish chunks of rocky land and stone structures presented in a dithered pixelated 3D style

stone wall segments, some plane some with patterns reminiscent of ancient Mesoamerican art presented in a dithered pixelated 3D style

at texture atlas: various small paintings arranged in a square grid. The paintings depict natural surfaces, water, stonework and decorative art and carvings

I released Mothwing in 2022, a short, abstract visual novel thing. It's the closest I've come to making a 'game poem', a form and sensibility I've been thinking about a lot lately

Workflow used by CG Lead Takuma Sakamoto and Art Dir. Shinji Kimura A. 2D Map ↓ B. 3D Geo (camera POV) ↓ C. 2D BG Layout ↓ D. BG painting ↓ Project D back onto refined version of B, animate camera, add hand-drawn animated elements, FX, shake, etc. #鉄コン #AmerBeton #anime #アニメ #木村真二 #松本大洋

B. The map (A) is used as basis for some height field for buildings, terrain, etc. Geometry is extruded and placed within a 3D scene, to serve as rough layout for BG painting

D. Final BG painting based on C layout, then projected back onto refined 3D model

Guest Room, trying to sketch a room from a dream

Inside a giant red room with a circular skylight is a tiered structure made of thin ramps with polyhedron modules attached on the 2nd and 3rd levels. A chair and plants decorate various levels. A figure in a yellow tunic looks up at the 2nd level.
