Re: 3d action game development
I've got two variants of the satyr blocked in. Keep in mind this is preproduction type of work - in addition to exploring basic theme and style for art, I am also developing the overall assembly line. I decided to add an additional satyr variant. I had a skirmisher and a charger, but I decided to add an archer as well.… -
Re: 3d action game development
Looks like there is some joint popping in the walk cycle (more evident in your tips and tricks post than here). But it still looks great. Fun to see the complete 180 in style.Also fun to see how this sausage is getting made! -
Re: 3d action game development
Okay finished an experiment to go for more stylization with the characters. I built a new model for the main hero character. This time I only did basic low poly modeling and just flat colors for materials. Just push and pull vertices in maya, no sculpting or complicated workflow. The minotaur model is the original sculpt… -
Re: 3d action game development
A couple more characters. I think I figured out a few little tricks to make this style look a bit better. The furthest right character, the Nubian, was created a couple days ago. Then I did the two satyr characters, and I think they do look a bit more refined. There is a few subtle changes: 1. I added thin borders of color… -

If this is meant to become a game at some point i suggest you reconsider before you comit to such idea. Reasons being (brace yourself!): - it doesnt look fun to me, maybe because… -
Re: 3d action game development

However, I realized that I didn't feel confident enough about some of the gameplay to be ready to commit to making art. The ranged vs ranged combat I felt was pretty solid, but fighting pure melee enemies left a bit to be desired.… -
Re: 3d action game development
Project review: Getting close to six month review. I make a full review after completing my next milestone but a few short notes might be worth sharing here. In previous six months I have:* completed prototype, which tested out a few combat mechanics and discarded many ideas to focus on a focused ranged-only design *… -
Re: 3d action game development
bit of blockout for the minoa palace. like the main stairway on right but left side I think should maybe tone down the columns so that pathway ahead is clear focus. maybe see more of the city rising onto hills in distance on left side to give sense of vastness. I'll only show it from player perspective so I think maybe… -
Re: 3d action game development
Thanks @pior Yeah i am really enjoying it a lot, even though I've never been big on cartoony styles, I am enjoying how it puts all the focus simply on the art and then technical matters are pretty straightforward it is just so nice that iterating on a characters design is so quick and easy there is little reluctance to do… -
Re: 3d action game development
Some more characters plus colors. Eight more to go. Coloring them in is relaxing and fun but settling on the initial design is pretty tiring.
