Re: Help! Do you mix different materials and objects on one trim sheet or keep seperate?
As far as I know if your engine is supporting "texture arrays" when GPU see them as a single object you can cope without doing huge atlases manually .

Re: Need advice: How to get unstuck in 3D modeling
"Has anyone faced a similar problem? How did you deal with it? I’d appreciate any advice".
If you're willing to hang in there like anything else worthwhile doing, the sense of accomplishment alone personally can be a real morale booster and likewise as already mentioned don't be afraid when things go pear shaped because in my opinion making mistakes is one of the best ways to learn.

Re: Zero views on my ArtStation profile despite having a Pro subscription—any advice?
the funny thing is my instagram gets virtually zero views or likes, but when I replied in a thread about cats, I got 300 likes within 2 days and 1000's of views.
Even making a silly comment on a thread gets at least 10 likes

Re: Need advice: How to get unstuck in 3D modeling
Hey! It's awesome that you're learning to do 3D, but learning the software is maybe about 10-20% of the adventure. What needs to be developed now is the ability to problem solve and it's honestly where I think a lot of us get long-term satisfaction from. You're rarely ever going to get things right on the first go, even as a professional. It's ok to do small things that look like garbage to build that skill. When I was switching over to blender I was taking it in small chunks, focusing on only a few problems at a time. I would build crappy low poly swords to figure out where all of the functions were or what they were called, I would bring in a model that would need to be unwrapped and topology tweaked but not done from scratch. I did this all as a person who has years of experience who can do way better than crappy little low poly swords. However in order to learn, I needed to fail, and fail fast. I needed to not get things right, ask myself questions, look things up, try it out, see what it does, assess if it did what I wanted and do it all over again if it didn't.
Problem solving is the most important skill you can develop and transcends software.
The other thing I like to say: it's a marathon, not a sprint.
Getting good means sticking around for the long haul and virtually everyone you see who is making things that you are inspired by had years and years of work not being great. Here is a great thread that is a few years old where people showed their first piece, VS their latest: https://polycount.com/discussion/171907/first-vs-recent/p1 perhaps you'll find it inspiring

Re: The Bi-Monthly Environment Art Challenge | November - December (93)
Hi everyone! This is my first post here!
I’ve decided to overcome my fear and try creating an environment for the first time. So far, I’ve made a blockout in Maya and visualized it in UE5. The next step is to break it down into high-poly and modular assets.
I’ll do my best not to abandon it and to finish it to the end.
I’d also really appreciate any feedback! 😊

Re: Pixelhammer: A Star Soldier Saga
I have now finished up a basic bolter firing. I'm going to throw these in a game engine soon and see if I can get it working.

Re: Pixelhammer: A Star Soldier Saga
I found these while looking for some animation inspiration. I did these variations for terminators because I was playing around with building a little game.
