Using Unreal Engine, I created multiple color variations and material options. Throughout the project, I worked across a flexible…
Weight painting and rigging. I was hoping to get away with one of the pre-made rigs, but couldn't get anything working. Figured it would be faster to just rebuild a rig from last project than looking for solutions. Quick corrective wrist bone: And here's a problem that plagues EVERY ONE of my projects and makes me want to…
