My favorite part of any project is assembling the progression video at the end. Seeing the jumps and iterations happen live like this is always so satisfying!

Some screens of my latest project. What started as just a truck ended up with tons of details and extra assets. Very pleased with how it ended up!

#3d #gameart #gamedev
A screenshot of my latest diorama piece; a bright blue, but old and rundown food truck. It is parked at the side of the road, near to the sandy beach. The truck is an old Citroen H van model. The capture shows the truck from the side/back, in a 3/4 display. A closer screencapture of the H van. This one shows the blue truck more from the front in a 3/4 display. A close-up of the food items that I made for the food truck. Items include a blue and yellow fastfood cup with a red straw, fishcakes in an old newspaper wrapping, a cutting board with two lime slices, some napkins, and three shrimp skewers with cut onions and bell peppers. A close up of the kitchen equipment that sits inside the truck. There is a double sink, a drying shelf with two pans, a fridge, extractor hood, and a stove that has a grill pane, frying compartment, and oven.

And it's done! Another piece up; my blue, little food truck. Happy to sell you ocean side delicacies whenever the sun is out and about!

It always feels both a little exciting and jarring when you're taking your work to the engine. Still plenty of work to do (the last 10% always takes the longest 🙃) but we're climbing!

An in-engine screen capture of my food truck diorama. The truck is an old Citroen H van, colored sky-blue with a white roof. It's parked at the side of a road at the beach, with it's hoods open with menus displaying fish dishes that are based on dishes from Cyprus.

The image displays two perspectives of the truck, both the front/left and the front/right. A close-up of some large Monstera leaves from the jungle scene.

Inching my way closer and closer to finishing this piece! I'm actually pleased with how it's turning out.

Also wanted to thank @jakebenbow.bsky.social! I've been using his painterly texture maps and they work so incredibly well! It's been an absolute joy to use.

A close-up screen capture of my stylized Greek street scene. The picture shows a small table, decorated with a blue cloth and various types of cakes and treats, all well-known in the Greek kitchen. A wide-angle screenshot of my Greece scene. In the picture there are white, bulky buildings with blue accents marking the doors, windows and distant, round rooftops. From the buildings there are large groups of pink flowers growing. In the middle of the scene stands a fountain that ties the street scene together. Along one of the corners there is a small, blue table set with some Greek treats sitting on the table. A render of the fountain that I made for my Greek scene. It is white-blue with painted, blue accents and tiles. A render of the blue wood that I made for the Greek scene. It shows a rounded cylinder and a plane in the background, both with the wood material on it.

Finally I’m able to throw this piece into the world to see in its completion! I wanted to work on a project where I focused on the creation of foliage, so I picked some jungle plants to practice with. Hope y’all like it!

It depicts the deity Tlaloc. A close-up of some large Monstera leaves from the jungle scene. A close-up of the mud material that I made for the jungle scene. The mud is brown, with a bright sun reflecting the slightly wet surface. Hard shadows from the jungle plants are stood around the outer edges.

They are tile materials, squared, with subtle brush-stroke effects added to their base colors. The left orb is dark gray/purple, the middle is a lighter variant with larger tiles and the right one is orange with very small square tiles.

The best thing about finishing a project is making a WIP video about it IMO. It's always super satisfying to see how far a project has come. This is the one I made after finishing my Sea Shrine project.

Time to post one of my previous projects! A short video render of my Sea Shrine, with Niagara ocean simulation. A tricky project that I might revisit one day to improve it, since there's plenty to upgrade 😅 But it was a fun challenge that made me think out of my comfortzone!

How it started > How it ended

While I'm still happy about how this project turned out, I did nearly give up on it a few times due to it growing so much as it progressed. Don't be like me, kids; follow a scope for your own sanity😭

#3d #gameart #gamedev #stylized
The first graybox screenshot in Unreal of my Greece scene. It displays a little table with treats on it. The table is surrounded by three chairs. The table set is placed outside in the corner of a café. On the far left there is a menu sign hanging on the wall. The final render of my Greece scene. What started as a table setup ended with a town square, complete with fountain as the centerpiece. There's multiple, white-walled buildings on the square adorned with pink flowers growing from the roofs. In the distance there are a few buildings with the typical, blue, round roofs that are a known set piece in certain areas of Greece.
