Modeler and texture artist
As a modeler and texture artist I was responsible for creating accurate 3D models of buildings from architect plans or concept art as well as placing those buildings inside the 3D visualization software. Buildings had to be created and placed within a high degree of accuracy because these models represented real world buildings or complexes that were being proposed for development.
