Hello everyone I created an environment piece in Unreal Engine called “Merchant in The Valley”. I want to create a short breakdown for Polycount how I created the trim sheets and approached the modular assets and foliage. If you want to watch a video, I created a video breakdown for Stylized Station. Under the video, I…
Dear Polycounts, We are a team of second year student Visual Arts, and we are currently visualizing a 4 person death match map based around the 2012 Total Recall movie (specifically the Colony). In order to achieve the highest quality result possible we are looking for C&C from the community/Industry. We are starting this…
Hi everybody! I'm doing a school assignment right now where we have to prepare pieces of a modular environment for use in UDK (the course doesn't actually teach UDK as it's a general 3D/animation/VFX course), but since I'm very focused on game development, I'll be taking my environment one step further and actually…
Hey JustColorado, Pros would probably use a plugin :) I assume you've googled for building modular structures/things. Here's a tute that might help you get your head around what you are doing when you are creating modular features:…
For anything non-modular that doesn't have exact measurements/surfaces, you can pretty much start from scratch in Zbrush, no need to really model by hand in the very beginning for that type of stuff. Of course you will just about always have to build a retopo somewhere else after (essentially you either model before or…
He's using modular, tiling geometry there. Each piece is unwrapped in a similar manner into the same UV space (independently), and with there being variations on the texture sheet, he is able to unwrap different pieces in new ways so as to reduce repetition and create a more natural, less tiled look. Study the…

Hi everyone, i'm running out of time (and $$) to find a job so the last two months i've been really pushing to get more stuff finished and presentable for my new portfolio. While i'm still working on the layout itself, i'd be extremely grateful for any C&C on some pieces that will be going into the next version. I'l be…
