Cycle Frontier - Tharis Island Rock Materials
On season 2 of The Cycle: Frontier I was responsible of creating new rock materials for the new map Tharis Island. We decided to swap all materials for the rock assets so the island would get its unique feel.
Textures were created in Substance Designer, allowing for updating other graphs and quick iterations
Many thanks and applaud to our awesome art team for creating this new map
