Launch Content

When I joined the Cryptic team Neverwinter had an established aesthetic and IP. I was brought on fairly close to graduation as a dedicated world builder/architect.  Throughout the few years before the launch I would create many different zones varying from Adventure Zones, Dungeons, Pvp arenas and player hubs. For the zones below, like much of my work on Neverwinter, I was responsible for creating the aesthetics per map, all world building including any terrain work, prop placement, lighting/atmosphere, subsequent polish passes, and a small amount of level layout/design. Much of the supporting assets were done by other artists, a few were created by me.

These are just some of the zones I had the pleasure of working on.

Dwarf King's Crypt


Gauntlgrym Arena (20v20)




Mt. Hotenow Arena (5v5)

Lair of the Mad Dragon



Edge of the Underdark



Temple of the Spider

The Sanitarium

The Wrathforge

The Graveyard


Transmog Witch



Xorlarrin Outpost

Hey everyone, I've been silent on here for some time now since I've been making art with the awesome guys over at http://www.crypticstudios.com/.  Been there coming up to a year and a half creating, watching and learning all I can about what makes them games run.  It's been a blast so far and I hope to continue cranking out awesome stuff.  Gonna be getting back into my personal art groove after much research and practical use.  Following this post I'll be updating with some screens of some of the work I've done on Neverwinter.  I'll be updating the folio once I get the programs installed for web editing.  Here's some of my work :)
 A few of the zones I've built.  Some models and texture sheets I'll post later.
