So it's been 2 days and I've already seen the ghiblification of war crimes, racism, antisemitism and fascism.

Great to be living in the future. No anti-gravity, no teleportation, no world peace but this, unaffordable homes, rising fascism and the planet still goes to shit. Thanks for that.

"Oh you like Kiki's Delivery Service? Boy are you gonna enjoy all the funny AI Marketing with her for your local food delivery app.

You like Princess Mononoke? How about she's the exotic secretary for your cities biggest housing company.

Haha, no of course not a single artist got a dime for that"
Can't wait to see AI Ghibli everywhere. Every image you know and love will be AI Ghibli. Walking outside is gonna feel like a zombie apocalypse, only that the zombies are abused resurrected art.

Fascism timeline cleanse

If you find yourself in a time where an obvious Nazi-Salute is not called out as such in our Media and there are debates to be had if it ACTUALLY was one, you know shit's about to get real.

Stay safe.

Loving Austria right now...
Great lessons again for learning how our liberal democracies deal with impending fascism. Just sit it out and hope for the best apparently.

What piece of art you made in 2024 are you most proud of and want to share? I'd say mine is this desert citadel map (the actual obstacles are still WIP)

The replication System in Unreal is just something I always have to relearn after not dealing with it for a while. I just rediscovered that UObjects don't support replication and I had to redo a days work... Now I just use Actors. Any advice which class to use for arbitrary data instead of actors?

So gamedev brained that I saw this house in our neighbourhood today and thought: "So they go with the wireframe shader christmas lights this year huh"

Fellow gamedevs, whats your standard workflow for assets in your game?

I try to go for simple geometry, often beveled, stylized textures, preferably all using a master material with a texture array. The motivation behind it is saving time with an easy workflow while having a pleasant look.

As a teen in the late 2000s strangers from our town contacted me to fix their pc issues. Never ever tell anyone you know your way around PCs 😅
as a kid, i fixed my parent's computer. as an adult I fix my kids's computer. pretty sure we are the only gen that knows how computers work

Some clouds on a cloudy day ⛅
Although I love the UE5 volumetric clouds, I wanted to go for a more stylized look. I made these simple clouds in Blender and got a nice look with a simple shader. Hope you all like it, tell me what you think 😊

Made a turret as an obstacle that can target and hit a player.
You may also notice the ice world that I'm currently working on 🧊😋
Let me know what you think 😉

Hey, it's #PortfolioDay so here are few of my pieces. I'm Environment Artist and even though I'm not looking for work right now, I thought I'll share with you my web where you can read about the making of the stuff seen below. I wrote 11 blog posts on it. petedimitrovart.com

A portal for traveling into the next level. I just love portal shader effects.
All sitting atop a glorious mountain embedded in a stylized stone pedestal. 🏔️
Hope you folks like the design. 💚

⚓️It's slowly turning into something really attractive, a few details are still missing and then it will be textured. Completely made in nomadsculpt .🚢
