  • Create high-quality character assets, including characters, character gear, and wearable items, that meet Apex Legends visual and technical standards.
  • Translate concept art and visual direction into production-ready 3D character assets for use in-game.
  • Model, sculpt, texture, and author materials for character assets while maintaining quality, performance, and production requirements.
  • Demonstrate a strong understanding of anatomy, proportion, silhouette, clothing construction, and surface detail in character creation.
  • Create efficient topology, UV layouts, and texture sets that support both visual fidelity and technical requirements.
  • Collaborate with Character Leads, Technical Artists, and Animators to ensure assets deform correctly and perform well in-game.
  • Work with Technical Art and Engineering to evaluate assets in engine, troubleshoot issues, and achieve desired visual results.
  • Contribute to establishing and maintaining quality standards, consistency, and visual cohesion across character content.
  • Accurately estimate tasks, communicate progress, and proactively identify production risks or challenges.
  • Participate in external development reviews, providing clear, actionable feedback to external partners and helping drive assets toward Apex quality standards.
  • Support the creation and maintenance of outsourcing documentation, asset briefs, reference packages, and production guidance that enable external partners to execute successfully.
  • Collaborate with Leads and Senior Artists to identify, communicate, and resolve asset quality, production, and workflow challenges with external partners.
  • Contribute to external partner evaluations through timely content reviews, quality assessments, and feedback on deliverables.
  • Participate in regular syncs, reviews, and production discussions with external partners and internal stakeholders to ensure alignment on goals, priorities, and expectations.
  • Stay at the forefront of industry trends, emerging tools, and new technologies, helping the team adopt and evolve best practices.

Ideally, you will have…
