Rampage Rally Challenge

Description

This piece was created as my entry for the Pwnisher August 2025 Rally Challenge. I aimed to blend the futuristic, eerie aesthetic of the video game Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 with a deeply personal, nostalgic touch from my home country. Drawing heavy inspiration from the game's setting, my goal was to reimagine their challenging rally in a French context. The star of the show is a classic Citroën 2CV—a true icon of France—transformed into a gritty, exploration-ready vehicle battling the otherworldly environment. This mashup is a tribute to both the game's incredible art direction and a celebration of French engineering and culture. Key Details: Duration: 18 Days Final Render Engine: Unreal Engine 5 (UE5) Animation: Maya 3D Assets/Modeling: Blender Volumetric FX/Simulation: Embergen I faced the challenge of integrating complex real-time effects and detailed asset creation within the deadline, focusing particularly on creating a dynamic, cinematic shot that honors the Pwnisher brief while adding my unique creative spin.
