Best Of

Dear Polycount community,

I want to share some environment art including some breakdowns of my tribute to Berlin.

To get an idea for the whole environment I collected lots of images first and figured out the whole map layout. Once I got a clue about the dimensions and scale I started my first basic blockouts and light moods.

Next I concentrated on the main (hero) assets and finished 2-3 a day (except the escalator) in my free time. All meshes are modeled sub-d and converted to Nanite in UE5 later on.

I did a first texture pass to check if all assets working well together - as I later on jumped back on some to refine the textures a bit more.

After placing them I concentrated on lighting and post fx such as ColorGrading, Fog, Particles, Camera setups and Decals.

A fully functioning military compass for a land nav simulation game. 

This is the game model, I gonna make a high version in zbrush and boolean out the ticks and numbers along the ruler, then I'll bake it and texture. It will be used in Unity so I have to find some magnifying shader for the peep sight. 

The mils and degrees are geometry, but they get baked onto the compass wheel. I used geometry because I find it easier to get the precision I need for this thing to actually work inside Maya rather photoshop.

Shoot an azimuth. The lens here has to be magnifying to work correctly.

I'm not so experienced with hard surface. Let me know if I did something stupid. For the high version I do subdivision without smoothing in zbrush, then on a very high level I slightly smooth some spots. It's a hero prop that will be large on screen and very often so I use plenty of bevels. (note though that the outermost top and bottom aren't seen at all in game, so I didn't bother to bevel them, hence the hard edges)

Hey all, I love all the great work shown here!

Hi guys,

Happy new year!🤩

Thanks for your time!😉



wasn't sure if i should post my car in this thread or not, but now i think i will




(3dsmax and photoshop)


mikebart:
looks great mike, but yeah i think a 128x128 texture makes more sense for such a lowpoly car.
