Re: [Portfolio] Ryan Lee, Environment Artist

Overall -Site seems easy to navigate, there's art instantly in your face which is good. -I like the fact that you have wireframe/AO on… -
Re: EVOLVE environment models
OK so here's a basic breakdown of how I built one of the structures for the game. As a preface, none of this is terribly earth shattering. Many artists work in a similar fashion, this just shows how I go about it. The first thing I made before building any of the structures in the game was to establish a texture set that… -
Re: Difference between Substance Painter's "Average Normals" baking and a traditional cage workflow?
Ok so I tried with floaters and got the result that @Quack! said. Average normals produced skewed details, as did the Max cage version. The non-average bake had less skewed (but not perfect) float details, but noticeable seams. Also worth noting that the problems displayed before on the Max bake on the right side now… -
Edge seams material issue artifacts (normal+height map)
Hi! I'm working on some furniture, but I have found a problem with the texturing steps. As you can see in the images, when I apply the material (a stylized material bought from an artist in Artstation), it gaves me some strange artifacts at the edges, which are also the UV seams. It only appears at the far… -
UDK Lights and Beauty Renders

I had tried doing a 3 point lighting setup (Fill and a couple of rim light with the rims not affecting the BSP ground). I've used point lights, and omni lights... I've used… -
Re: SPainter bakes softer zbrush hi res mesh details vs Designer?
I tried , no difference . Chat GPT tells me it's a known Painter behavior and suggests to avoid decimation so the hi res mesh would keep quads . Somehow I haven't noticed that issue before. Designer bakes better actually much to my surprise , trying to be less smart or something. -

Modular Building-Help on tiling bricks
So I've started making a modern modular building. Seems like a must have piece for a portfolio according to the agencies I speak to. I have a pretty good idea how to go about it. One thing worries me though, and thats which way to do the detail work- mainly the bricks. So I made a modular window section and I need to make… -
[UE4] Bouncy Castle (Modular)
So who knows why, but I was curious about a way to really easily and quickly put together decent-looking modular Bouncy Castles, with a dedicated Master Material. A habit of mine is to try and find easy solutions for cloth/rubber/etc things without expensive tools and high-res meshes or lots of unique surface area, so this… -
