For a while now Ive had this as my linkedin profile pic but I recently worried people might think I am not serious or enthusiastic enough compared to the normal overly smiley business centric pfp

So Ive made the adult decision to swap it out for this more professional focused pic from the weekend.

I always really struggle with lighting props/environments so for this one Im trying something a bit different

I made my windows black and white so that I cant see the value of the image without the distraction/juxtaposition of the colours 🤷🏼‍♂️

Interested to see the results!

Much like @jordanmossy.bsky.social and a few others mentioned I was really fighting bad texel density on this so I went back and re UV'd/baked. Turns out uvpackmaster borked something so now its much loser to the desired TD 😅

I was debating going back to bare metal again so I focused on getting the paint looking grimey and reducing the soft bumpy height mask.

I think I want to do a highpass version of the paint chips height mask so I can get some thinner peeling on the edges 🤔

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? 🤷🏼‍♂️

Recent realised #Titanfall2 servers arent being ddos anymore so I have been playing again and my lord this game is good

Every movement and action feels so deliberate and solid

And art direction wise the world they built from the architecture to the character designs is so strong and fleshed out 😍

I think I'm winning a little? 😅

Some of the ref has a painted finish and some are bare metal so I think I might do some paint just to add some more interesting details
