Hello #portfolioday!

I'm Abdou, a 3d artist and gamedev.

I'm focusing on prop and hard surface modelling, but I also enjoy lighting, shaders and programming. I'm currently looking for a job.

I spent the entire day trying to fix an issue Unreal and Visual Studio (the project failed to launch/compile), and it turns out the issue is VS automatically enabling distributed compilation, and my laptop which is connected to the same network was missing some components
I am so done with tech

Ignore me, I just wanted to make a new pin with the finished mech since I didn't have it done in time for portfolio day 🥴

And per my previous pinned:
If you're reading this, hello! I am still open for all work!

but this will not be the last you see of him! UwU

Later this year I will get to rigging him up and do likely a number of key arts with him

Also, keep an eye out for @chengdulittlea.bsky.social new Zine, "Over The Edge" at the end of the month for a bunch of behind-the-scenes and lore for this guy!

Trying out a layer of paint on top. Needs more height variation and way more chipping I think but I feel like it breaks up masses of metals quite well? 🤷🏼‍♂️

I'm fixing code someone else wrote in Unreal, and it has so many questionable choices that I wonder how the code barely worked in the first place.
It feels like AI generated nonsense, but the thing is : it was made in Blueprints and back in 2023, so it was definitely by hand...

Very obviously still very much an early Work in Progress, but I wanted to try and show off the pearlescence. Might look rubbish depending on your device screen…

so today I updated two old projects, because I didn't want to remove them from my portfolio.
These are the two, they are on completely opposite sides of several spectrums lol

Finally started to learn Plasticity, was on my to-do list for too long. If anyone knows good surfacing tutorials or tips & tricks, please share! My main sources so far have been the channels of PixelFondue and Kuechenmeister.

My first Plasticity model:
