Finally finished with this scene in #UE5 ! Really really happy with how the lighting and cinematic came out, and Im super proud of the models and textures too. Definitely will see a lot more #unrealengine5 projects from me in the future! #zbrush #gamedev #3dartist #substancepainter #maya

Moving from greyboxing to sculpting the environment is so satisfying. Can't wait to share this little project when I finish!

First time working with the sequencer in #ue5 ! I also did all th3 modeling and texturing from scratch. Definitely need to clean up the cinematic, but I'm pretty happy with this first pass. #unrealengine5 #ue5 #zbrush #substancepainter #gamedev

More progress on this #ue5 door blueprint! I added textures in #substancepainter and added some really cool cyber/emissive panels with normal mapping (and I even animated the emissive motion paths!) Getting really close to finishing this asset, then I gotta build a quick little level around it😁

Working on a "door" blueprint in #ue5 . Sculpted everything myself in #zbrush, and am getting ready to do some fun stuff in #SubstancePainter. Gonna try animating some shader properties throughout the sequeunce which should be pretty cool!

Finished my first #UE5 blueprint! Modeled and textured the robot myself too, cause why not? I like to model and texture 😁

Hopped into #substancepainter and threw a fresh coat of paint on the robot i modeled in #zbrush . Almost done blueprinting in #unreal5 this guy should be pretty fun when I'm all done!

I'm about to start working on my first ##unrealengine5 blueprints, and I basically want to make a little test game where you can click the buttons on a robot to make him do different things. But first, I needed a robot! #zbrush #3dart #3dartist #3dmodeling

Finished working on my first #unrealengine5 level! Tried to think hard about visual storytelling and rewarding exploration, if this were to go into an actual video game!

Making some progress on this #UE5 level! Learning a lot, but realizing quickly just how much there is to learn; the 3D rabbit hole remains endless!πŸ€ͺ

One of my first low-poly environment projects from a little over a year ago: Plato's Rave. I sculpted everything from scratch in Maya, except for the clock face which I made as layers in Illustrator. Painted everything myself in Substance as well.

Check out my animation director debut! My and my team of 10 brilliant individuals took 10 weeks to produce 5000 frames of 3D animation (with many 2d elements).
