Gears 5 : Asylum

Asylum is the COG’s equivalent of a mental health asylum with the added twist of the New Cog government closing it down and demolishing the bottom half to accommodate their new train network.

I was primarily responsible for the electrotherapy room (room with surgical lights) and the solitary confinement as well as blocking in the out of bounds vista, the vista was then handed to concept to create a matte painting. I also worked alongside Tibor Toth, Luke Efrussy, Ibrahim Wahab and Joe Tyas in the New Cog tracks area, this area underwent several largescale iterations due to the gameplay and art being very important here.
