I figure I'll start a thread for all my projects. That way I can help reduce clutter!
Here are some things I've been working on of late.
Firefly Gun:
Bridge WIP:
This new texture allowed me to save 115,000 tris w/o losing visual fidelity!
Soda Machine Scene Sculpt:

The textured soda machine's specularity on the painted part seems smoother than the surface should be.
In the sculpt you have those dents in the machine itself. You should hit those with the wrinkle brush. It works pretty nicely on metallic dents.
That's pretty much it, great work!
Here is another sculpt I just did. Try to avoid looking too closely lol yikes.
Thanks for looking!
Here is a sculpt of a ground tile.
A few pieces of a modular stone railing set. Currently only a sculpt.
Awesome............:)
Actually went and finished my s/g/n for this, so I wanted to post it up. Would love some feedback. This is a UDK render.
@MisterSande Remo! Hello! Thanks haha your too nice, its good to see you too! What are you working on now?
In the meantime, here is the final on a texturing demo I did. Only low poly and the gammut of textures rendered in Unreal.
Also, I really like that hard surface sculpt, do you have any tutorial you followed for workflow, or just general workflow for hard surface sculpting? Need to make some for my current piece
Thanks AlbinLundahl! The rock took me less than an hour from modeling to renders in UDK.
As far as hard surface sculpting goes, Masking, extractions, and clip curve, + hPolish are your best friends! Polygroups and creasing by groups help alot too for slick clean lines.
Heres a render of some high poly assets I'm doing for a small scene I'll post eventually.
Rendered in UDK
I feel like a whore for posting this in three places, but I wanted to keep it in my art blog. Sorry :S You can call me names, I can take it!
So I went and redid some textures, and have imported my scene into CryEngine because I wanted to start using it as well. So its been a learning experience, here is my result.
Trying to redo some older sculpts for portfolio renders.
CMTanko: - take an image, shop it into a solid alpha with limited noise
- apply it to your mask brush
- mask the area
- use a brush to bash it to shit.
I hate that image when I look at it now, the concrete is pretty blobby garbage.
I had a few questions about your foliage study.
How do you plan to make something like this? It's "small" in terms of making a full on environment, but its self contained. It's a slice of what the full level will look like.
How long does it take you to make/How long should it take someone on something like that?
Is it one texture or mult?
Is some thing small like that good in a portfolio?
Thank you for your time.
You work is very good.
And this:

Look just stunning! It's clay Tubes brush and alphas cracks alphas?
Keep posting your work: it's very inspirational!
Sorry for PRO english.
I think the planning aspect of a diorama is not too different then of something larger. You are still considering all the elements and how they fit together, and composition also has to be considered from all angles too. For that study, my focus was on natural objects and foliage.
- it took me a week from sculpt through to textures for the that
- it is 3 textures
- I believe so, but I've heard countless times, a full environment is better than a prop portfolio. The diorama is halfway between both.
Mr.Significant:
The grass is geometry, a couple polys per blade. But it doesnt have to be could be much lower like --> Grass Blades Example
No, I didn't use clay tubes on that asset, I have created my own stone/concrete damage brushes and combined them with a few different techniques to get that broken effect. There is use of alpha as I mentioned in the post above...
Sorry for lack of personal work lately everyone! I've been rather busy with work. When I get some downtime, I have something cool planned.
I'm sure you will get some time to work on stuff. I know I am pretty busy my self. I need to get back to working on my own projects.
An update:
More trash bag sculpts
