Rainbow Six Siege - Ultimate Edition Key Art

This is the approved key art concept I produced for Rainbow Six Siege: Ultimate Edition - Year 5. I worked one on one with art director Brian Tippie for a few weeks developing concepts for this piece. After presenting about a dozen concepts this is the one that was approved. During the concepting process I worked primarily in 3D to establish lighting and poses using the original models, then I took it into Photoshop to do some photobashing and painting to finish it up. I was happy to see that the final product is almost 1:1 to the sketch with the exception of some lighting and colors.
