Another #swordtember Order of the Astral Hunters All younglings of the Reul Na Maidne cluster dream of one day owning their very own astral sail and the curved blade that is the mark of a hunter. All hunters blades are forged from meteoric iron and the metals found in titan bone. #HumanArtist

I did a really dumb thing and added in faked contact shadows because i wanted nice contact shadows where objects might lay on top of or intersect with the ground or other objects.... heres a before and after!

Texturing is going along well, having a lot of fun with it, i havent really done a lot of rocks before like this so its a good test of my painting skills :D

and now we start texturing!

so anyway, here's wonder rock

here's a fancy little video, I added a little bump offset for when there's a metalic mask. so metal objects will kinda shimmer a little :3

redid the entire shader and now its looking even better with more defined paintstrokes and not just blobs it actually fucking looks great now im so happy LETS GO

ok i think im done with this shader for today, tomorrow i need to actually do some more on actual projects not random stuff that pops into my head lmao

fuck you (procedurals your paint strokes in engine)

is there any tech artist discord any of my oomfs are a part of that i can join 🥺🥺🥺

So I've added view distance based increments so the closer you are for smaller things you can still have things grid aligned. and a TOPOGRAPHICAL HEAT MAP LETS GO!!!

ok yay now i can properly start climbing

OH CMON!

photo study of brunhilde

Hehe fake spotlight go brrrr

distracted moment, refactored my procedural grid material to work in world units (meters) so now its PERFECTLY aligned and scaled to 1 meter with half meter and 10cm increments

playing i have no mouth and i must scream again for the 5th time because its heavily inspiring my game, holy shit it always fucks me up tbh also interesting how different it is from the short story but its still edited and voiced by the author

modifier stack go BRRRRRRRR

and now i have a pretty skybox too yay

i decided to make my own procedural grid material because im an idiot and wanted to do it myself because i couldnt find a default one i liked.... it has taken 2 days.... why am i like this

Ok so now we have custom shadow colors and attenuation! Also have it integrated properly with bounce lighting so soft boxes will work in your render setups too! Remember this is all faked lighting hehe

ok so i finally figured out what to call my hand painted render pipeline/environment HP Inkjet Pro 8120e All-in-One Printer and if i ever make a commercial one for licensing HP Officejet Pro 8120e All-in-One Printer

i made it into cheddar, sharp

Got some good updates on my hand painted/stylised render environment for y'all this is a before and after in a fully lit environment with my custom lighting shader on and off, it also lets you control dynamic specular highlights and light direction with ease!

oh man i need a project name for my unreal 5 stylised/handpainted render environment for you guys Any suggestions would be amazing!

here is the texture process for Invictus Gaming Irelia ✨ 🎨3dcoat and photoshop #LeagueofLegends #InvictusGaming #Irelia #handpainted #3d

god getting weird circular shapes intersecting with weird geo AND with zero pinching on the first try is just so satisfying 🥰

If i were to release my hand painted and stylised friendly unreal engine 5 render setup for myself full of lighting and material and post process features along with blueprints for swapping out assets would you guys be interested in having that accessible and available?

starting out 2025 by shouting out one of the fucking best extensions you can get for browsers

There isn't enough games where you play as a shape shifter who can just smack someone with giant bear claws for no reason as a normal heavy attack

Its only been a week or so since i started doing my gymnastics and karate flexibility exercises and i can already reach past my toes with no issue. tbh if you've never been able to touch your toes before if you do elephant walks as a warm up before hand you will be surprised :P

i've been watching a lot of dubbed anime recently so i can work at the same time and still know whats going on and... I KEEP HEARING WHIS'S VOICE ACTOR IN LITERALLY EVERYTHING HES EVERYWHERE AND I CANT UNHEAR HIM AS WHIS EVEN WHEN HES DOING A DIFFERENT VOICE AND IT ALWAYS CATCHES ME OFF GUARD

I've decided that all the characters in my game are going to wear ponchos because they're objectively the best piece of clothing

This Valorant fan agent concept I did a while back #conceptart #art

I was going to make a new years resolution to try and get back to more personal projects instead of just wallowing in my unemployment but why wait till the new year tbh. Fuck it it's time to get back on my feet now

oh right i guess i did do a lot this year, doesnt feel like it lol it feels like this year vanished into the ether haha

starting some lunchtime small projects again lol

yo wtf a hāngī pizza??? lets go if not for the pumpkin i would smash that so hard

I heard you got some guanciale

So I've been feeling super sick the past week and I had no idea why... Feeling so tired needing to sleep 12+ hours a day, anxious and sweating a lot. Hot flushes and nausia.... Guess who also forgot to refill their ADHD medication..... It was fucking amphetamine withdrawals 💀💀💀 Biggest ADHD moment
