Hi! I run a small indie studio working on our first game, and we’re looking to hire an experienced 3D environment artist for a paid consultation. We’re currently stuck on defining an environment art style + production pipeline that’s eye-catching, but feasible for a small team. Our target vibe is similar to Spark Ignites…
Had a look at Hair and Fur: The guides (Display Guides in the Display rollout) are hard coded to 15 segments, but if you scale all of them down enough right at the start and choose the tips as selection method, you can manipulate them reasonably well. "Stand" would be similar to a gradual reset/revert, "Clump" to pinch.…
As I continue my quest to make every looping track on my website available in higher-quality Ogg format (as opposed to Mp3) here's: "BALLOONS FOREVER" You can listen to it here: https://soundimage.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Balloons-Forever.ogg Maybe for a puzzle game? An open-world game? Or something else entirely?…
Why do we have to "normalize" our normal maps? Here's an example that hopefully helps illustrate it! Notice how the lighting is messed up in the edited normal map. You can't see the windows anymore on the dome and donut, and even the flat background is reflecting the wrong colors. This came up in my last post; I shared…
We are developing a stylized mobile game and are looking for a programmer who can help move the project forward together with our lead programmer. We already have a strong technical foundation and several systems in development, but we now need someone who can assist with implementation, optimization, and further expansion…
Recently I decided to get back into 3D after abandoning it for as much as a decade, and today after only 6 hours of Blender, I was swiftly reminded why I had to drop it in the first place - arm pain, specifically in these two places here: I already know how this is going to play out - my arm will feel weaker and the…
I will absolutely look into doing clear-coat when I try to optimize this down. Thanks for the replies! I am back with an update. I spent most of yesterday refactoring my previous result, with a refocus on pushing PBR and trusting it over curating a certain look. I also dug an old reflector out of the garage and studied it,…
Hi, For some context I do environment design (hobby) mainly, but I am starting to do more and more modelling instead of depending on others for models or purchased kits. I have been delving into making rocks both realistic ish (with brushes) and stylised with the base Blender brushes. I saw a Mark Kingsnorth retopo addon…
