Life is full of horrors but I did see a dog in a party hat today so things are looking up I guess

cant think of a better word but this industry is fucking jarring.. I was at a #gamedev conf a week ago and was chatting to a certain studio's recruiter about the roles they had open rn Cut to this morning where I open linkedin and said studio is laying off 85% of its staff??? Wtf are we doing lads

I promised myself I wouldn't spend anymore money on artbooks until I built myself a new bookshelf (since the last one fell off the wall from the weight 😅) but @paddysbooks.bsky.social has way to many damn good books for sale... where am I going to put them😭

Made a little scene from some props I made for a previous project and some marmoset tileables #GameArt #gamedev

Ive always really liked turntables on artstation posts but I thought they were awkward to make today I learned you can do them in @marmoset3d.bsky.social in one click 😅 I hope everyone is prepare for me to spam them in every project from now on 😂 #GameArt #gamedev

For a while now Ive had this as my linkedin profile pic but I recently worried people might think I am not serious or enthusiastic enough compared to the normal overly smiley business centric pfp So Ive made the adult decision to swap it out for this more professional focused pic from the weekend.

Update: yes? #GameArt #gamedev

I always really struggle with lighting props/environments so for this one Im trying something a bit different I made my windows black and white so that I cant see the value of the image without the distraction/juxtaposition of the colours 🤷🏼‍♂️ Interested to see the results! #GameArt #gamedev

Took my partner to the My Neighbour Totoro play valentine's day and then stopped off at the barbican conservatory. Plant and concrete photo spam eminent! 😅

Im not saying Im old and wise 😅 but each day I realise more and more that getting older is learning how right Tommy Lee Jones was with this sentence.

Im excited to be attending my first Guildford games festival on the 20th! But I think Ill be driving down so I was just wondering if any wonderful Guildford based #gamedev 's have any advice on where to park?

If you are connecting with me without a single art post/portfolio/WIP what possible reason would i have to accept?? Im not even going to start on the myriad of "Creative Director of a company with just them as an employee" folk 😅 But if you are starting out or trying and wanna connect please do! ♥️

its so crazy to me how many students send me connect requests on LinkedIn in with not a single portfolio link/piece of art to there name Dont get me wrong I will add anyone who is trying regardless of skill level because thats what others did for me and Im happy to help but... 1/2

Probably wont post this much more until its done! but thought this test render looking cute, might delete later 🤭 #gamedev #GameArt

Time for the last 10 hour shift of making race car bits for this week 😴 No better time to tackle the Sisyphean task that is listening to the @noclipvideo.bsky.social 's boys Game Of The Year coverage 🫡 If I dont make it someone please finish my portfolio project

Added a few more layers to my paint materials and spent some time having fun with some stencils! I think its starting to come together 🤞 #gamedev #GameArt

Much like @jordanmossy.bsky.social and a few others mentioned I was really fighting bad texel density on this so I went back and re UV'd/baked. Turns out uvpackmaster borked something so now its much loser to the desired TD 😅 #gamedev #GameArt

FINALLY! The game I’ve spent the last several years working on has been announced. KILN is a pottery party brawler! The pot making system in this game will knock your socks off! youtu.be/6C11Zmc93-I?...

I was debating going back to bare metal again so I focused on getting the paint looking grimey and reducing the soft bumpy height mask. I think I want to do a highpass version of the paint chips height mask so I can get some thinner peeling on the edges 🤔 #gamedevs #gameart

Trying out a layer of paint on top. Needs more height variation and way more chipping I think but I feel like it breaks up masses of metals quite well? 🤷🏼‍♂️ #gamedev #GameArt

Recent realised #Titanfall2 servers arent being ddos anymore so I have been playing again and my lord this game is good Every movement and action feels so deliberate and solid And art direction wise the world they built from the architecture to the character designs is so strong and fleshed out 😍

I think I'm winning a little? 😅 Some of the ref has a painted finish and some are bare metal so I think I might do some paint just to add some more interesting details #gamedev #GameArt

Trying to make believable old cast wrought iron has been a challenge so far but heres my first pass at it! I think its to noisy height wise 🤔 (Please Ignore the manky normals on the wheel its a layer I was meant to delete before exporting but I was running late for work 😅) #gamedev #GameArt

Its that wonderful #PortfolioDay time again! I'm Tom, a Prop/Environment artist looking for there first full-time role in industry!

Found renders of the first models I ever did in substance back in 2017 Was going to do the trend of me "20XX - me 20XX" but I feel like that trend doesnt get the point across that #gameart is a compounding skill and it takes a lot of projects to snowball. So heres a 🧵 of mine

My notice period with Avalanche is officially over as of today which means I am now looking for work. If anyone knows of any open positions for a 3d artist with 5 years experience please let me know. I am open to full time or contract positions onsite, remote and hybrid. www.artstation.com/jomperr

Did a little texture study! Feel free to check it out on Artstation www.artstation.com/artwork/eRB8gJ #gameart

It's been a while since I shared a WIP of this project, hoping to get back into it this week! I've taken a pause from the foreground and started working on the building's block outs now. #gameart

Texturing progress!

Texturing progress!

The texturing has begun... 👀 #GameArt #gamedev

Finally got the chance to play Keeper and Im so glad I played it! After 9 years of trying to land an art role my hopes were at there lowest in 2025 I really wanna thank @leepetty.bsky.social and the @doublefine.com team for reminding me why Im bothering to try and enter this stinky industry ♥️

My lowpoly is baked! I will be adding some more sculpted details to the metal parts of the highpoly before I start texturing but Im just happy to have the uvs out the way 😴 #GameArt #gamedev
