Environments - The Rogue Prince of Persia

early key art - the story and setting were different at the time, the Prince was evolving in a huge tower where each floor was a different biome

exploring the ingame view, one of the first concept art

the tower, relic of an ancient era

architectural inspiration from the achaemenid era

a bit of hanging gardens flavour

playing with the idea of the "back" wallrun, guiding the eye with patterns

color thumbnails, evolution through the biome

paint over a LD blockout

a more cinematic exploration of this biome

early concept of an environment that would be more "inside the city"

Zagros village - starting area

Zagros village - LD blockout paint over

Palace early exploration

Academy

Huns camp

Tannery that later became the Craftsmen District

Tower of oblivion

Hub early exploration, at this point we liked the idea of it being out of time with a mix of different cultural influences

another hub exploration, a place where time and space make no sense, the desert is inside the tower

Actual hub concept art, what is the Oasis now in the game

This is my first game as an Art Director and I couldn't be more proud of what we achieved!
