Stadium prop concepts & Explorations | Deathbound

Stadium prop concepts and explorations made for Trialforge Studio. In 2023 I joined their incredible team to work as a prop and environment concept artist for Deathbound, a souls-like game released in October 2024. It is a pleasure to share those. ♥

Zehrimbal is a sports stadium in which the former civilization would host games that were a mix between soccer and gladiator matches. Later on this area is used as fortress by one of Deathbound’s factions. Just like many of the buildings in the lore, it was inspired by brutalist architecture.

By the time I joined the team we had most of the stadium already set up, from the base design and architecture to the materials and dressing ideas. Me and the concept team still had opportunities to revisit the area to tweak and revamp some of the designs.

Entrance revision

Entrance paintover suggesting colors, grafitti, and small decor tweaks. The base setting had already been set up by the environment & 3D team.

Graffiti

Graffiti studies using the game’s factions and themes as subjects. I loved making these.

Ticket booth adjustments

Ticket booth revamp: We had a concrete ticket booth and I had the opportunity to overhaul its design entirely. I modeled a simple Blender base (no UVs nor polish) that the 3D team could use as a rough scale and geometry base. In this concept we were discussing how the lettering could work, besides refs for the textures and colors.
