Mekaverse Drivers

While at Manticore, we collaborated with Mekaverse to create a collection of what they called “Drivers” to pilot their gundam-inspired mechs inside Core, our metaverse/UGC platform. This initial concept was done to sell the idea of the collaboration between the teams.

The design was meant to key off elements of their existing IP and some sketches they had done previously, and bring them to Core in a way that was compatible with our rig and technical limitations

Collection

This project resulted in a collection of 8,888 unique playable characters on the core platform, which I art directed and collaborated with my team of character artists at Manticore
