within this project I have created a concept for a beginning level of a demon slayer game I've called Hellsgate. My main focus of this project is based around environmental and concept art. 

The idea for this level was it would act as an introduction level that would delve the player within a strange and unusual world infested with the supernatural and unnatural. 

Here I played with various ideas for the layout and feel of the level, exploring the setting overall the feel that I wanted to capture within the project.

Taking my concepts I began grey-boxing my level within blender and unreal engine testing the layout and how I could give its design purpose. considering how the player will traverse the environment and what would they encounter along each path.  

Following my original ideas I began my work on the focus point for the level which was a small castle like structure that the player will need to investigate in order to progress.

Here during my experimentation stage I wanted to test the effects of using different mediums such as oil and water colour to see the kind of feel I could get when using different materials or methods. 

Here I made a base sketch for a final piece of concept art, with ill go over digitally to develop smaller details of the design
