[Finished] Venice Map | Realistic Unreal Engine 5 Env | Using Nanite & Lumen
Hey everyone! I've finally finished my Venice Map after around a year and 1000 hours. Here are some of the screenshots. You can find more on ArtStation, thank you!

Re: Star Wars Outlaws: Character design was the least of this games problems.
i haven't played any ubisoft games in probably a decade, and never been a big star wars fan, but i saw some snippets of trailers around and have to admit the look of it made me feel some nostalgia. definitely nailed the vibe
although the culture war trolls are generally losers i can sometimes at least understand where they are coming from in cases where a previously attractive character has been made to be less attractive. in this case, it's a totally new character, she is conventionally attractive, just not an anime waifu style or whatever the hell the biggest creeps on the internet call their digital crushes, and i think she bears some likeness to luke skywalker which i think was kind of the point. she looks like a real person and seems appropriately casted.

Re: Star Wars Outlaws: Character design was the least of this games problems.
I'm enjoying it, but I have a suspicion that its cobbled together from different cancelled projects and maybe changed a lot over development, which is why many of the systems and levels feel unpolished.
As usual, the tone of the criticism is hyperbolic (if its not perfect, its TERRIBLE). It could be better, but IMO it absolutely nails the vibe.

Re: Star Wars Outlaws: Character design was the least of this games problems.
I saw skillup's review on it, seems good from an art perspective but it's just another game that falls in my 'looks decent but probably don't have time to play it' category.
Concord, on the other hand is getting absolutely farmed, which sucks because clearly a lot of effort went into it, just maybe not the art direction...

Re: Game Industry Layoffs - WTF?
artists in Cali make 100k because rent is like fucking 5k/month for a 4x4 foot cardboard box in a parking lot at walmart that's been tastefully decorated with homeless people (actually your coworkers, who got fired) vomit, so glad I moved out
For you europeans out there; it's like living in London, but unironically

Re: What made you feel crap today?
"Historic day for Germany: Fascists win the first state election in the history of the Federal Republic - with a regional association that is classified as definitely right-wing extremist. It is the greatest political success for Nazis since the 1930s."

Re: How The F*#% Do I Model This? - Reply for help with specific shapes - (Post attempt before asking)
@KarlP
To control how tight your support loops are, you simply move them, it's as simple as that.
In your exercise, it's useless to push back and forth the loops to "conform with the flow", since they reside on a totally flat surface and don't contribute to the shape; and your mesh doesn't have to be all quads

Re: Show your hand painted stuff, pls!
I’ll guide you through the process of modeling, creating PBR and hand-painted textures, and 3D printing, followed by painting the model.

Re: [WIP] Not-a-Glock — Game Ready Asset Optimization (feedback is appreciated)
Did you use reference pictures for flat angles such as this one for example? The gun looks very lopsided and some sides are too thick, generally you want to set up multiple reference pictures for several orthographic views and either trace directly if you're making an exact copy of a real gun or use them as a general shape and style guide if you're making something fictional.
