This was the first part of my art test at Naughty Dog. They gave me concepts and reference. After finishing this test they were quite happy but since this test was quite old (pre Uncharted 1) they wanted me to try my hand at an updated test.

Hey I just stumbled on your work by searching various art tests. You've got some great work! Could you say what the specifics of this and the second test you got were? Like the timeframe and general guidelines?

Hmm if I remember correctly they said that the first test they sent me was an older test and they wanted me to take a crack at their updated test. I think the guidelines were 100k polys and the time frame was take as much time as you want, but don't take forever. It took me about a week for each version of the test. roughly 60-80 hours, but I wasn't keeping exact track. They said I could reuse the temple but the new test had the rocks and bridge, the bridge wasn't included in the concept so I had to come up with that on my my own. Also the only textures I had to make were the alpha cards for the vegetation. That's all I can think of... it's been quite a while now since I worked on this test. Thanks for the kind words!

Really impressive. Your environment scenes are really impressive. You put a lot of effort into it and the models are detailed even as it is low-poly. I'm envious!
