L-Star (Apex Legends)

Weapon skin for the L-Star from Respawn Entertainment's Apex Legends. A concept model was built off of concept sketches and then later refined and repurposed as the high poly bake model after the final 2D concept art was handed off.

​

All non-ice pieces fit onto a single 2048 px material, while all ice pieces use a single 512 px material. The ice material was separated to better handle translucency in the game engine. Real-time rendered in Marmoset Toolbag.

​

Special consideration was given to the modeling process so that the pre-existing animations for the weapon would still work for this unique concept.
