Call of Duty: Black Ops

 Grid
 MP Grid came to me in a rough block out form. It had some real problems with flow and overly vertical gameplay. After several playtests, we decided to scrap the existing map and start over. A clean slate! However there was one important stipulation. I had to start with a satellite photo and make the map match it exactly....Fortunately over time this rule was bent significantly.









Crisis

I gave Craig Bernardo an assist on this map after we had to change the front part of the map from buildings to a beach while maintaining the existing flow and sight lines. I had to move quickly breaking down the structures and replacing them with suitable land forms made of coral and sand.







Havana

Havana was originally set in Cairo and the blockouts were done entirely by Treyarch. Where the large Hotel Riviera is now stood the pyramids of Giza. I worked as an environment artist on this one, rebuilding the geo to make it Cuban rather than Egyptian.
