Re: LOW-POLY ART
Hi! WIP screenshots from my retro prop pack in n64/ps1 style that I am planning to make and sell to see if people are interested in my work. I realized that the uv mapping part is the most annoying thing while making pixel art textures (but perhaps it is the most annoying thing with 3d art in general). I want to finish this pack earlier than two weeks but being a perfectionist doesn't help. My instagram got suspended for no reason and I can't create a new one so my only hope is that the twitter gods push me forward and people follow me, but that seems impossible. I thought of doing timelapses on youtube but maybe there is a better way. Do you guys have any tips for recognition?

Appreciate the interest. Development has paused again. In short, a budget of several thousand $ is needed to properly realize the core gameplay. Without this funding, it simply won’t happen, despite previous attempts. I’m slowly working on gathering the necessary funds. Once the gameplay is developed to a greater extent (we'll go quiet until this is done), we’ll likely reopen Patreon and transition the project to a co-funded model with the support of the fan base.

Re: What Are You Working On? (3D) 2025
Finished the Microscope hero prop I was working on for my portfolio:

(Edit: replaced with a version under 1mb as I realized I was over the first go-around.)

without going into details where i feel like you could match the concept better, i feel like a few notes could be adressed on this piece. check some anatomy. the way you constructed the neck feels very off to me, you could go 2 directions here. more accurate anatomy representation or overall just less anatomy showing through. with the concept i would go for the second route and consider the neck as one surface that goes into the head, chest and shoulders. without much of surface breakup going on. ankles feel a bit broken especially the front facing one
some lines feel wobbly, i would clean those up
I feel you could have either worked more low or more highpoly. atm it feels a bit imbalanced with shoulders being significantly smoother than the calves are. personally i just would add a loop here and there to get rid of the blockly look at places or use the blockly edges at the right places to emphasize the hard shape changes of the design
materialwise i feel like everything is too samey. skin looks almost like the yellow suit, looks almost like hair etc. patterns on the suit seem to have the same material properties as the suit itself. i would suggest you treat each channel of your material (albedo, roughness, maybe specular level if youre using it) similarily by using contrasts between materials in each of these channels to pop them more.
i would also introduce a bit of roughness breakup here and there to spark some interest. the face looks very noisy and plasticy due to seemingly having just one roughness value all around

Re: BRAWL2 [Vehicle] Bull Dust, sacboi [Tribute]
Still having a blast faffing around 
Nearly done modeling the exterior, I'm now only adding detail that'll be observable and make sense to actually make. Probably won't have time for my dirt bikes, would've been nice but needs must since for me at least be little tight to UV, texture then render in engine so we'll get bit of a shift on. Hmm...thinking on it might even have a crack implementing UPBGE instead of UE4 in an effort to streamline things just a tad rather than skipping between apps rigmarole.

Re: Witcher 3 Blood and Wine architectural material
Hey man, you can check that shader out in the modding tool released by CDPR, The Wticher 3 REDkit, it's free if you own the game in any platform, it's basically the RED Engine, you have access to the entire world, textures, shaders (they use nodes!) and meshes. The shader in question is called pbr_vert_blend_colorize, the shader extension is .w2mg
. If you want to see the environment you can open Toussaint, the map is called bob (dlc/bob/data/levels/bob/bob.w2w)
