Himanshu S.
Unreal Engine (UE5) Level Designer & Environment Artist | UEFN
Unreal Engine 5 (UE5) and UEFN Level Designer & 3D Environment Artist with 6,900+ logged hours, and Top Rated Plus status. I bridge the gap between aesthetic world-building and technical performance—designing immersive, playable 3D levels that maintain strict frame-rate and draw-call targets. Whether you need a competitive multiplayer map blockout, an open world using World Partition, or custom UEFN island mechanics, I deliver clean, engine-ready assets. CORE TECHNICAL & DESIGN CAPABILITIES: • Level Design & Grayboxing: Player flow, combat sightlines, modular blockouts, verticality, and pacing. • World Building & Environment Art: Biome composition, landscape creation, modular kit assembly, Nanite/Lumen calibration, and foliage workflows. • Performance & Optimization: Profiling (Unreal Insights), draw-call reduction, LOD pipelines, shader complexity fixes, and texture memory budgeting. • Systems & Pipelines: World Partition, Level Streaming, PCG (Procedural Content Generation), and custom master materials. • Tools & Version Control: Unreal Engine 5, UEFN, Blender, Perforce (P4), and Git. WHY STUDIOS & CLIENTS WORK WITH ME: ✅ 30+ completed contracts with pristine 5.0 client ratings. ✅ Production-first mindset: Clean project hierarchies, zero engine clutter, and strict naming conventions. ✅ Fluent in team workflows using version control (P4/Git). Whether you have a rough concept, an early whitebox, or an existing level needing an art and optimization pass, let's connect and discuss your project scope.
