Naval Headquarter – Environment & Prop Design
High seas, heavy stone, and a bit of lore!
I wanted to create a stylized coastal fortress that doesn’t just look cool, but actually makes sense for a production pipeline. I even added a little custom banner and backstory for the statue to give the world some soul.
Here is the full breakdown from the big mood down to the tiny assets.
Main establishing shot with the lore banner and the overall vibe.
Up close with the main entrance and the staircase.
A secondary look at the harbor docks and coastal buildings.
Focusing on the heavy round defense tower – heavily inspired by the classic look of old wooden ship sterns and captain's quarters.
Functionality check – showing the street-facing side, how goods and cargo are transported, and how the sun sails work.
Playing around with different architectural door designs.
Exploring variations for the stylized window frames.
Iterations for the street lamps and light fixtures.
