Very special thanks to CD PROJEKT RED for rigs, animation and amazing support.

Aedirn, one of the Four Kingdoms, lies between Temeria and the massive Mahakam Mountains to the west, and the Blue and Fiery Mountains to the east. The Kingdom is feuding with Kaedwen about the land called Lormark or Upper Aedirn. (source: Witcher Wiki)

In the modelling phase we aimed for stylization that would match the feel of the original Witcher game but with necessary adjustments that would help to make the final models more readable on the game board.

In cases where we could re-use CD PROJEKT'S assets, we changed selected details to avoid noisy look. In other cases the details had to be exaggerated so that the character could be more pronounced from a greater distance and from the players perspective.

All characters in the Thronebreaker showcase were textured with 2K PBR-correct textures. The final texture files were optimized to 1K.

Aedirn Deserter appears in Thronebreaker as an avatar in a battle. He actually occupies little screen space and thus his budget is only about 8K polygons. We compensate for this fact with PBR materials and carefully distributed shapes.How do you like him?
