Pseudo-Divine Entity representing an Aspect of Chaos. You may call me Walsh if you prefer. Don’t get too close though… unless you wish to lose your sanity.

Texturing progress on the game asset, been using Substance Painter for the first time. Still some more work to be done before it can be called complete but getting there.

Initial texture baking test on the low-poly model for the camcorder. Some minor flaws here and there but nothing that can't be fixed.

High-poly model pretty much done, including a preview of the battery. Next up will be working on the actual game asset and then the textures.

Focused on the detailing on the bottom and did a bit more of the hand strap, which is probably going to be the most complex part for me to get right aside from the lens.

Added some more details to the hard drive side and made a start on the hand strap, wouldn't want to accidentally drop it now.

Drawing closer to completion of the high-poly model. Got some more work to do on the hard drive side and underside (including the hand strap), then should be good to make a start on the actual game asset.

Made some more progress on the high-poly model for the HORNET SuperCam today. Slow-going but definitely satisfying seeing it come together ☺️

High-poly model for the HORNET SuperCam is coming along nicely, having a physical reference definitely helps with replicating some of the smaller details.

Since I seem to be on the grind with revisiting old models and finishing them up, did a blockout of the main body for the camcorder model to use as a point of reference for making the high-poly meshes.

Keeper's mask is completed. Added some weathering and scratches, also made some straps for securing it to his face. Will start working on the wearer himself Soon™

Models for both forms of the Black Tree completed. Main inspirations when coming up with the design were Slender Man and Groot.

#Blender3D #Horror
Renders showcasing The Black Tree and the 2 different forms it can take: 1. "Employer" form, in which it will be remain for the majority of the game. Seems to be making some sort of attempt to "blend in". 2. "Void Face" form, which it only tends to assume when it has decided to pursue a victim in earnest.

A mask which will be worn by one of the followers of the Black Tree. Intended to evoke the classic Jason Voorhees mask with a bit of a twist: a crooked smile has been carved out of its surface.
Just needs is a bit of weathering and it can be called done.

Welp, it's official. Here are my thoughts and final decision on future content.

I love making characters, both 2D drawings/digital painting and 3D modelling (including my own Vtuber model).

Working on-and-off with a personal horror game project (ALWAYS HUNTING), in which I’m hoping to bring some more of my characters to life.

Made some smol fixes to the render, also did an EEVEE version with Raytracing for those interested.
Brick details look a bit better in the EEVEE render but the shadows aren't as good imo.

More stuff
The old version of Jacob Marks, while a lot of the credit goes to the MakeHuman developers and the developers other program I got the hair from (drawing a blank on the name of the software), I think I did a decent job making the hoodie and other small adjustments to give Jacob that personal touch. The Metahumans version of Jacob definitely knocks this one out of the ball park, but I'm still pretty happy with how this one turned out considering my skills at the time. Ah yes, this monstrosity was my take on Jeff the Killer. It's funny how much of a hack job it was, but it was one of the first character models I actually completed. This was also before I even know about proper UV mapping and texturing techniques. While Jeff is no longer part of ALWAYS HUNTING, apparently the model was "good enough" to be included in Terror Engine. A sculpt I made of The Rake using Sculptris, never got around to finishing the arms or doing the retopology due to the decision to replace or cut out the parts involving Creepypasta characters. The parts I was originally planning to have The Rake take part in were changed to have The First take part in them instead... although this is even before I decided to go back to the drawing board with the plot entirely. An unfinished Laughing Jack model, strangely enough I remember working on the hair although it seems to be absent from this version. Oh well, since I abandoned the idea of using Creepypasta characters it doesn't really matter.

Took a trip down memory lane, dug up some old ALWAYS HUNTING stuff.
More details on each in ALT text/descriptions.

The model based on the original design for The Black Tree, pretty barebones compared to the current version. The plan was to have it start off in this form prior to the game's events and say it gradually evolved into the "Slender Man" figure (known as "The Employer") in an effort to better mimic humans. Ultimately this idea was scrapped in favour of building on The Black Tree design and stepping away from the Slender Man design, but it's interesting to look back at what could have been. "The Employer", essentially what would have been my take on the Slender Man. While it is no longer part of the vision for the current version of the story, the Black Tree will still have nods to the Slender Man lore. The old model for Kenan, who was originally going to be BEN from Ben Drowned but the design was altered and repurposed. He will still make an appearance in the story, although with a much-needed update to the model first haha. The First, one of the more mysterious creatures in the game. Still planning to include him... but not before I give him a bit of a redesign to be more in line with the current vision of the game.
