well, I can think of two big things to comment on; 1. does the katana have distal taper? Many 3D artists model swords as if they were cut from a flat sheet of metal; you want distal taper. 2. Is the cross-section of the katana grip oval or perfectly round? You want an oval cross-section for edge alignment. other than that…
This week I focused primarily on the texturing process and the initial scene setup in Unreal Engine. I completed the full texturing pass on my model, making sure all materials were properly created and applied to achieve a consistent and realistic look across the asset. I paid attention to detail in the surface quality to…

Update! -Added an exterior door wall. -Added a walkway. -Replaced the window opening model with a new one. I also had a question about the back faces of wall models. In the case of the school’s outer perimeter wall, I deliberately removed the back faces to save on polygon count, since no one will ever see that side, it…
I wanted to create a convincing safety reflector material for a future project. I spent a weekend toying around with it in the latest version of Unreal. Here is a description of how retroreflectors work: https://sky-lights.org/2020/08/10/qa-how-bicycle-reflectors-work/ These reflectors are cast in transparent plastic with…
I'm going to call this model done for now. I don't want to tweak it anymore, even though some parts still look pretty rough. I've sunk way too much time into it and honestly it's left me feeling a bit desperate. I'm ready to jump into the next stage quickly.
