Eshima Rock | Assassin's Creed Shadows : Claws of Awaji

I had the privilege of being the primary owner of the Eshima Rock asset for Assassin's Creed Shadows : Claws of Awaji , overseeing the full process from early research and development through to the final in-game look.

A special thanks goes to Aurélien Le Mangouero, who handled the high-resolution photogrammetry scan of the front face.

Building on that foundation, I sculpted the entire back of the rock by hand to ensure it matched reality as closely as possible and felt consistent with the scanned areas.

Beyond modelling, I invested significant time into creating and refining complex masking setups, as well as tweaking and optimising the shader. The main goal was to stay true to the real-world references.

I was also in charge of the whole navigation on the asset, which was a big challenge.
Amancio De Almeida was in charge of the LA of the trail
