I haven't been active here for a while. Mostly been on LinkedIn as my main social for work and craft. Currently working on a fan art VFX project. Only character models and the environment are not mine — everything else (textures, FX, sequence, animation) is my own craft.

Wrapped the term with a #Python tool for #UnrealEngine! It converts lightmap textures into SDFs to build masks for clean cel-shaded facial shadows — no vertex normals needed💫
Artists fine-tune in Photoshop🎨, plugin does the rest💪
Excited for use in future projects!🚀

Exploring cel-shaded face shadows like in "Hi-Fi Rush" and anime games. Turns out it's a mix of layered SDFs – moon phase style. I'm using Render Targets, Jump Flood and Python scripting – hoping the character won't look haunted 😅

Hi! I'm Ilya, a VFX & Tech Artist student. Passionate for post-process techniques, level sequencing and VFX in stylized games for gameplay and cinematic scenes.

Here are some examples of my work from games and tools creation to VFX work, and even music video production.
