In this documentation, I describe in-depth the Hatched Ink Shader for Unreal Engine. I aimed this shader specifically at Concept Artists, but I can also imagine a use for it on games or anything else. If you have somehow stumbled over this documentation without knowing about the shader, you can get it here:…
Hey! Decided to work on this again today :D I started working at 5:30PM. I'll start fixing what I listed above. I had a nasty crash about one hour in and lost a bunch of progress that I made on the hands. But you know the way it usually goes! When you have to do things two times, the second time is always quicker and…
Lady Death Fanart Collectible: Part 7 Cuts and keys Hello guys, this is the final entry of this process, it’s a long post but maybe you can find some useful information. Cuts and keys Before explaining my process to create the separated pieces I must say that it’s mandatory to understand how scale works in Zbrush. For this…
Hello :) I have a few things to show this time around - bits and pieces of various parts of the project in their various stages. First up is the bogey (bogeys?). I have got a low poly out. Blender reports this as 35k tris, although I think the true number is about 64k, as blender doesn't report instanced geometry. UE5…

(But damn I hate buying an asset for it to be triangulated without a quad version) (The assets are not for sale, but I just meant that an unwrap for unknown tangent space would make a safe approach that always works a good choice) Batching Workflow (offtopic from UV…

Research Dota 2 Characters After finding a character that inspired me, I hpped in game with him, checked out his animations, spells and VO to get more of a feeling for him. From there I read his little paragraph of lore for more…
You're making the assumption that elasticity is important, but it is not because games are a one time purchase. You have a limited number of potential customers and they're all only going to buy the game once. Selling at a price lower than what a customer might have paid removes them from your potential market and you lose…
Hi Guys! Chris Gilbert from Knald here. First and foremost I want to thank all of you for your invaluable feedback over this past week! Second, I wanted to address a few of the issues folks have been having. * License Server Connection / License Validation ErrorsThe primary cause of the issues here were malware…
I was going to say that maybe getting into a cheap school with a public requirement (such as portfolio piece to get in as opposed to Private schools which take you in without one), under which you can get your GI Bill and work on your portfolio at the same time, under a 1 year or 3 year program depending on what you need,…
I wouldn´t necessarily call it fun:) And you will probably have nothing to show to people in this time. However seeing your improvement to older models can be quite satisfying and rewarding. Also in the long run you will get better faster which means you can focus faster on whole projects again ;) In regards to Biomag´s…
