Date
February 2026
Software
Blender, Adobe Substance Painter, SketchUp, LayOut, Unreal Engine 5
This was my Final Major Project as a 3rd year student at UAL studying Art Direction and Visual Effects. I did this in collaboration with another student Rebecca Thompson, https://www.rthompson-arts.co.uk/
We decided we wanted to recreate The Goonies (1985) Pirate ship and turn it into a VR game. I focused on modelling and texturing the Captain’s cabin as well as making a technical drawing for said cabin.
I also worked on the gameplay in Unreal Engine 5, making sure all the assets were imported properly and then adding the materials back onto the assets and working on lighting.
