Re: Art Deco Train
Unless this is an old/abandoned train, I'd really cut down on the surface scratches & weathering. Art deco was all about smooth, streamlined surfaces - if it was metal, then it was either painted to a high gloss or chromed. -
Re: 3 handpainted shields
Hide the gizmo! Pop the metal with some brighter highlights a bit more. That surface is hard to distinguish from other surfaces. Great designs with these though. Can't wait to see some more stuff. -
Re: The wonders of technical art (Unreal Engine)

Pretty sure black is the zero value? The white parts of the alpha will either push the surface up or down depending on whether the brush is set to zadd/zsub. The brighter the white, the greater the change in surface will be produced. -
Re: Improving my Art!
trim dynamic rocks for that just moving over the surface but not like this, creating so many perfectly flat surfaces, move over it rather quickly don't stay too long in one big area.
