• Develop high quality, realistic, or stylized textures for 3D character models, including skin, clothing, accessories, and props, ensuring they align with the project's artistic style and vision.
• Collaborate closely with 3D modelers to ensure textures are applied seamlessly to character models, with attention to UV mapping and texture placement.
• Optimize textures for performance, ensuring they meet technical requirements without sacrificing visual quality.
• Follow the artistic vision and direction of the project to ensure all character textures remain consistent in style, color, and material representation across assets.
• Follow established technical pipelines for texture creation and integration, ensuring all texture files are properly named, organized, and version-controlled. Ensure textures are compatible with the rendering system and game/animation engines.
• Receive and act on feedback from lead artists, directors, and other stakeholders, making adjustments to textures to meet both artistic and technical goals.
• Revise and update textures during the production process as the design or technical requirements evolve, ensuring that textures remain aligned with character development changes or environmental changes.
