Iron Order 1919
This is a cross-platform strategy game based on World War I scenarios and beyond. Under the Iron Order, countless inventions and technological advances have seen mechanical warfare slowly take over. Soldiers become mere bystanders when Massive Mechs engage in major battles. The goal of the game is to capture most of the map. To achieve your goal, you have full control over your country’s economic development, technological research, military achievements, and diplomatic relations with other players.

Production Workflow

We have allocated a large team of concept art and 3D modeling specialists in order to complete the intended goal on time in accordance with the wishes of the client.

GOAL

Our goal was to create 3D models of soldiers and special combat vehicles called mechs, as well as to prepare all required poses for models in accordance with the game design document.

challenge

Our challenge was to strictly follow detailed instructions regarding the appearance of mechs and soldiers and think through semifictional elements for combat vehicles.

Production workflow

Stage 1. Working on mechs

Our first task was to create 3D models of so-called mechs – semifictional combat vehicles that play a key role in the battle. The key advantage was the presence of a very clear technical task. Desired mechs should had:
  • ⚪️ Realistic textures
  • ⚪️ Rusty, rough materials
  • ⚪️ Not too bright colors
  • ⚪️ Not the fresh-out-of-the-box appearance
  • ⚪️ Mostly realistic proportions

We created ground, water and air type mechs and combat vehicles for 3 key factions: Germans, British, and Communists.

Stage 2. Working on soldiers

Also, for each faction, it was necessary to develop 3 infantry characters in the ammunition corresponding to his fraction – Germans, British and communists.

Stage 3. Working on animation

The tight deadlines made us form a large team of 16 people for this project. On average, concept art took two weeks, modeling took three weeks, creating the necessary poses took one and a half weeks.
