About the Project:
A detailed game-ready asset of the iconic Soviet Antarctic heavy traverse vehicle, the "Kharkovchanka" (Soviet Antarctic Expedition / САЭ). Built to conquer extreme polar environments, the design emphasizes rugged industrial utility: heavy tracks, riveted panel seams, distinctive expedition markings, and weathered paintwork. The goal of this project was to achieve an authentic vintage look while maintaining a clean, game-optimized pipeline from initial blockout to final bake and render.
