making sure the jars/potion bottles were properly setup took a lot of time to do right, as there needed to be 3 different material slots had to be carried through from blender to substance to UE5
the glass material was further tweaked in UE5 for fresneling

I also modeled + texturing various jars/potion bottles but went a bit overboard future-proofing by creating versions where the jar glass/topper/liquid meshes & textures are combined and then also separated in case we want to have just the jar meshes to house non-liquid stuff

we started putting together a little scene for a beautiful corner but as you can see, the lighting/coloring still looks muddy and off so we are messing with the tone mapping/lighting to try to get that more flat style

additional texturing updates from last dev logs models
we are really trying to make our game look like how the substance texturing looks when it's just the base color layer, but it's been an ongoing process of figuring out the UE5 settings for that

after some practice sessions, we settled on the general flats style with some AO and lighting/gradient overlays as the main texturing direction, though we are still fine tuning this
the tub from last sprint as an example (with some model tweaks)

shortly after this sprint started, the members of our team + others participated in the 2026 global game jam, one of the props I made was a masking tape gun and we liked how the texturing looked when it was shaded with just basic flats, so we decided to explore that for R2W art style

one of the big challenges of this sprint was trying to nail down a cohesive texturing style for all the artists on our team to follow that was doable within our scope/timeline, we ended up losing time exploring various options that all kind of flopped for different reasons

starting off, I took on the role of Scrum Master this cycle so the first task I set for myself is re-organizing the scrum sheet layout to something that makes more sense to me/the team this mostly involved separating sections for each person rather than by the overarching deliverable

baggage tub! you know, the thing you put your stuff into when you have to maybe remove your shoes and laptop at the whimsy of whichever agent is on duty
it is this shape because i got inspired by some medieval bathing tubs

baggage scanner pumpkin! there will either be some sort vfx or cloth situation for either opening for the baggage tub (see below) to pass through and be scanned
no "conveyer" atm because was planning on creating a tiling pattern then applying to a plane within engine once this is assembled

body scanner! planning on texturing the base dais with runes/glyphs and then have some sort of a flame vfx within the lantern, so they would light up or glow depending on if someone passes/fails the body scanning

jk here's a nicer shot of the final assets i made, just screenshotted from the viewport
i'm kinda bad at sticking to the concept art if I did the original concepting so some big changes happened between the sketch and the final model
but this is the imagined layout within the game

started modeling with blender, but unfortunately I am very bad at documenting my process so here is the blender file with everything I did/iterated at once (one day I will have one of those fancy timelapses)

for the environment art, I am in charge of creating models for our game's equivalent of the airport tsa body/baggage scanning area
pairing that with our magic/fantasy/medieval-esque theme, i sketched out some concepts & started sourcing refs for a pureref board

Started off this sprint working on a lot of pre-production stuff (i.e. design document, organizing files, managing server, etc.), but from those am most excited about the art bible co-created w @heathermarra.bsky.social! She everything on the art side while I focused on design/layout/ui
