This project was built using a wide range of tools and workflows, combining organic sculpting and hard-surface modeling with detailed material and lighting work.



Minefield Warrior presents a lone futuristic soldier surviving in a war-torn wasteland, training alongside his demining partner—a specially trained rat—at a makeshift shooting range.



The character's mechanical prosthetic arm and leg suggest a history of injuries from previous mine-clearing missions, reflecting both vulnerability and resilience. At the end of his high-tech detection gear, the trained rat stands alert, symbolizing how, even in an age of advanced technology, human survival still depends on nature's instincts.



To amplify the atmosphere of decay and desolation, I designed the environment with elements such as sandbags, damaged target mannequins, and wall graffiti—each contributing to the narrative and visual storytelling.
