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 I was meant to delete that but I was running late for work 😅) #gamedev #GameArt

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 layers just to add some more interesting details #gamedev #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

Recommend my favourite content: a game industry veteran talking about games he worked on. Game World Art by environment artist David O’Reilly. He’s still active, so the insights are relevant. youtube.com/@Game-World-Art

Much like Mossy 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

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

Some high res renders from my Half-Life 2 RTX work, made with blender, textures in substance painter and rendered in marmoset toolbag, some post processing in photoshop as well! #b3d

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

its so crazy to me how many students send me connect requests on LinkedIn in with not a single portfolio/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

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

I promise Ill stop posting about titanfall 2 one day but its been my comfort game for weeks now 😅
