Making a simple tool to adapt terrain heightmap onto splines for
s&box, as well as draw any splats over them. Customizable width, ease-in falloff, and offset.
Haven't figured out a nice way to handle rotation minimizing tangents yet, but it's somewhat useable! #gamedev

Just finished writing two new articles for my "shaders for noobs" website: Custom Skybox Shader and Common Functions!
Setting up vertex shader, view ray UVs, iterating with Light API, TextureCubes, and bunch of other little extras. Stay tuned for even more soon-ish! :-)

Cobblestone material made with Substance Designer. I don't know if I should have so much fun with this stuff, but it is really enjoyable. My graphs are absolute spaghetti though. :D

Old lawnmower that has seen better days (built with very limited set of image references, so I'm sorry if it looks off to lawnmowing enthusiasts)

Working on a terrain detailing system for s&box using indirect instanced drawing, with instance data calculated and stored on GPU end. 🤠 Little preview of a custom sky shader, too!

Little intro animation for "Blocks and Bullets" by @smallfi.sh :-)
Still big noob in animating, but it's a fun thing to practice sometimes.

Experimenting with a custom shading model in
s&box, using custom BRDF model with stylized surface-stable dithering, pixelated shadows, and support for subsurface scattering using thickness map.
WIP! Has plenty of inaccuracies that I'll need to resolve in the future.

I've just released "Shaders for Noobs" - website with a collection of beginner-friendly tutorials on s&box shaders.
It covers nearly all basic surface shader features. Website is open-source too - so any contributions are welcome!

2023: the year when I've realized how powerful pure HTML, CSS and JS can be, even for some extremely specific use-cases. No 3D models or libraries!

Blood God's cathedral, made for the Rust Kingdoms 2 event, hosted by Rustoria and Abe.
Probably one of my coolest Rust custom builds I've made this year, who knew I would be able to build something like this someday. :0

Some new viewmodel animations I've this month. :-)
Little fact: these zombie hands were animated and programmed into Shoot & Build just a few hours before the playtest. Initially we thought we'll host the Infection gamemode with much more barebone art lol.

My workflow to create & edit sounds is beyond cursed. I don't know why am I using this ancient modding tool for Cave Story game, but surprisingly it works nice for my tasks. Using Vegas for audio editing is probably cursed, too.

New gun coming to Shoot & Build next playtest, .357 Revolver! High precision secondary weapon, just for those who's good at aiming.
I'm still figuring out animations, but so far I am happy with the result.

Making little rework of Shoot & Build water shader to get rid of material input maps and generate waves & normals at runtime instead.
There's no particular reason for it. Sometimes I make changes just for the sake of challenging myself.

"Nokia-"inspired"" 3D model I've made this summer.
Marmoset Toolbag 5 FTW. I absolutely love having nice texturing & rendering tools in one program.
