Re: [WIP] Ghibli Kiki's delivery service, inspired enviroment UH Main project
Hiii, this time I continue with my project, all the plants where finally change, the road was fix and the bushes (a lot of bushes) where place in the scene, I am so happy as finally modifying that and with the road the image breaths so much more and the composition is way better. 
I also have been modifying my values, I think I am finally getting closer, and after that it will be time to modify the saturation of the image.
These are the values that I had before. 
Compare to the one in the corner my values had too much contrast so for the new ones I try to soften these values to appear more like the image, if you all know a way to see UE5 in black and white will be so helpful as I have been back and ford in Photoshop to see the values. But well, this is the result.
I still have to modify some values Like the one of the trees, but I am happy is getting closer.
For other stuff, I will start with doing a texture for the tree trunk and tree variations. After that the cubemap for the inside of the house and start with the effects like butterflies and smoke for the chimney

Re: How can I model this ruin?
Maybe this might show more steps...

You have to block out the large shapes first. Try to make it modular.
For the edges it depends. This I would do last once you have the main pieces that you are going to break up.
Once you have your modular parts bring into your sculpting program and do a damage pass.
If you have zbrush get the orb pack of brushes.
If the concepts shown in the links that Eric provided don't provided enough steps, it's because what you are trying to do is too advanced at the moment.
Look up how to sculpt rocks and bricks, make seamless textures in zbrush then try to apply those lessons to an arch. Once you are happy with that, see if you can do the other elements in your reference.
I included a really bad model showing the steps you might take.

- Turn your block out mesh into a "sculptable" mesh with Zremesher and Dynamesh
- Damage edges.
- Sculpt large details first
- Subdivide enough that you can use alphas to add fine surface details.

Re: How The F*#% Do I Model This? - Reply for help with specific shapes - (Post attempt before asking)
orkin said:Thanks for any help!
I'd suggest you start with a paintover, breaking all shapes down into logical groups, then model these, then join these, then work in details like the cutouts and drill holes

Re: What Are You Working On? (3D) 2025
Hi everyone,
this is the result of my attempt to move from the props I make at work to vehicle. Can I please get some feedback?

Some glTF materials I've made, real-time vs. raytraced.

Re: [WIP][UE5.3] Forgotten Waters
I made the intial landscape using gaea
I also made some of the tress and grass in Speedtree
I was able to setup a pcg folliage setup in unreal engine to layout the scene.

Re: The Bi-Monthly Environment Art Challenge | July - August (97)
Hi everyone! I'm excited to join the bi-monthly challenge for the first time!
I've wanted to participate for a while, but was a bit shy to take the plunge.
I've wanted to participate for a while, but was a bit shy to take the plunge.
Here’s my progress so far — I’m aiming to make the model as accurate to the concept art as possible.
It’s hard to say exactly what’s behind the glass, so I took some creative liberty there.
Also, the central hole on the cap seems wide enough for the piece in the middle to twist and pass through.
(And speaking of accuracy — I just realized the cap is rotated the wrong way. Oops! 🙂)

I am not sure about this part below, it looks like it may be a cut or maybe sit just ta different material without an inset.
Next I am planing to prepare a low poly and texture it.

Re: [UE4] Playable Sci-Fi Environment (Space Station) Project
As I said, the next step was to texture the whole hangar. I had around a dozen tileable textures to work with. It was a long process to assign each UV shell to a texture, and then scale, move and orient the shell depending on what I wanted with the textures. In the end, the textures feel kind of just put weirdly on the walls, but at least, I think that I have enough diversity, with the few textures I am working with. Furthermore, great lighting, emissive area and decals, kind of help to hide the repetition of the textures. They will be used for the whole station as well.
I have a good look at what will be the global result.
But now, I will have to do the same texturing process on every parts
of the station, so It will take a long time. Next updates will be a
bit slow, however If I finish this project, I will be very satisfied!
Feel free to give any feedback or ask any question if you have one!
