Organizing material layers to these five that I will be using in my next environment. I decided to incorporate parameters to control blending two normals together at the vertex paint border. Textures made in Designer.

Really really happy with how the brick materials turned out. #substancedesigner #gameart #UnrealEngine #environmentart #gamedev

Focusing on materials in this part of my next project that I'm working on. I made two different versions of bricks to blend together to add some variation to buildings.

A short video showing how I used material layers to procedurally blend two textures together, beginning with a simple gradient with added RGB textures and parameters to control contrast and value. This helped me remain consistent throughout the project

www.artstation.com/artwork/a0Z0P9 Spent the last few months working on +1ing my UE skills. It is based on Jourdan Tuffan's Esbatuan watch tower concepts. Finishing this project is a huge weight off my shoulders and I learned so much in the process. I can't wait to make more. #gameart #unreal #3dart

Another favorite of mine, I made this bust of Imperious by first making a rough shape in Maya, cleaning it up in Zbrush, and finally texturing it using a combination of Substance and Photoshop. This was a great excuse to practice hard surface modeling.

Skull drawings are the best therapy

This is one of my favorite pieces. I took a hand painting course with @ashdoodles.bsky.social years ago and I highly recommend taking it! This was wonderfully challenging and I'm glad to have had the opportunity!

Seriously it was a blast! (Pun intended :D)

I made this dope suction up gun for #Underlords boss Enno. I absolutely loved building it. You can see all the high poly and final work on the thread below!

I got so frustrated with this pose even though it's such a simple one

Binging on the Walking Dead ten years late. Anything to escape this election cycle.

I don't post much on here because I don't have anything content worthy. I've been laid off from my position as an environment artist at Blizzard; just another expense that needed to be cut so the shareholders can make it through the winter, I guess.
