yea just hand painting, every once in awhile I use a pre-made material just to see what it looks like but I use alot of gradient layers as a base and then paint the details on top of that. also takes a bit of time unwrapping the models since the pixels sometimes don't like to line up on the seams

Pixel8r 2.7 by Action Dawg Pixel Perfect retro textures in Substance

thanks so much! mostly this is all done using the pixel8r tool. i went from using block bench for pixel textures to this. it makes everything so much easier. I just slap this on like a filter and hand paint under it. actiondawg.itch.io/pixel8r2

low poly rat

heavy Machine gun might add some more detail to the magazine but liking how it came out #gamedev #indiedev #modeling #weapon #lowpoly #3dgun

A more animated look at the model of Alt-Fire's assault rifle.

While rule of cool comes first in an arena shooter, I like to make weapons somewhat sensible. Magazines, a bolt, a chamber, ways to reload - even if gameplay stretches realism.

Here is the Battle Rifle, taking a break on the weapons for a second so I can get some files organized and into unity #gamedev #indiedev #modeling #weapon #lowpoly #3dgun #battlerifle

Here is the Heavy Flamer, still have more weapons to go. I want to finalize the other 2 enemies next so that we actually have something to shoot at #gamedev #indiedev #modeling #weapon #lowpoly #3dgun #flamethrower

your half ass looks like my full ass, great looking stuff!

think i'm about down with the UZI-ish model. Was a bunch of fun getting back into the weapons. Making the heavy flamer next. #gamedev #indiedev #modeling #weapon #lowpoly #3dgun

saturday models

Back on my weapon making grind, got another small SMG (UZI inspired) for my low poly weapons. It looks like we might double the amount of weapons. Will post the textured version soon. Will try to post more as job situation is secure atm #gamedev #indiedev #modeling #weapon #lowpoly

thanks for the tip, I didn't know about the godot functionality. I got it working into Unity a few days ago and it makes everything go much faster!

I've been knee deep into TrenchBroom, will probably post an annoying amount about how fun and simple the tool is once you get it up and running to be used in unity. its just great being able to block out a map in like 30 mins. I will get back to modeling characters soon! #indiedev #gamedev

🦇Lasido, Faux Lady

Finished her textures! :> Yes, I'm going with pixelated texture for her because she pulls it off super well~

Thanks for all the love on Lasido! :D I knew she was a cutie but everyone's response has been super surprising~ Her blade is next, then pose/animation

Recently just heard about another Twitter migration so wanted to bring up the Low Poly Creators starter pack once more to help find artist you used to follow there!

It contains 100+ amazing lowpoly artists I like, and recommend following and two feeds for lowpoly content! :D

This was just a texture change to the brain Drone Enemy but it matches the newer models/textures much better. all the enemies are now at 256x256 textures, except for larger boss models at 512 #indiedev #gamedev #blender #lowpoly #CharacterRedesign #LowPolyArt

Sorry yall this post isn't low poly models but I'm really happy how this #LeaguesOfVoltann #warhammer40k model came out. please excuse my dirty painting desk #warhammer #minatures #40k

Just reduced the poly count on the ghoul character by half (left is the newest 829polys) might have to fix up the texture a tad but its in a good place also added a color to the jacket to better identify the enemy at a distance #indiedev #gamedev #blender #lowpoly #CharacterRedesign #LowPolyArt

love this, its a good idea to do some warm ups i should try some. pixel8r was the best purchase of my life

Just updated the cyborg turret, getting close to finishing the poly count reduction and the new textures for the enemy NPCs. Then I can get back on level design #indiedev #gamedev #blender #lowpoly #CharacterRedesign #LowPolyArt

Just finished the first Boss! He likes to fire rockets from his back and then run in and punch. The thing I hate most of finishing a model is getting the motivation on starting a new one. Usually takes a week but I get there. #indiedev #gamedev #blender #lowpoly #CharacterRedesign #LowPolyArt

In the process of redoing all the enemies, new model is on the left. here is the Heavy Enemy (name WIP) who carries the big guns. Much happier with the colors on the newer one #indiedev #gamedev #blender #lowpoly #CharacterRedesign #LowPolyArt

had to redesign the basic cyborg for our game, I think it turned out better and he doesn't seem like a shrimp any more. The newer one has a lower poly count as well #indiedev #gamedev #blender #lowpoly #CharacterRedesign #LowPolyArt

speedran making these models in 2 days. placeholders and image compilation by @kebbyquake.bsky.social

Finishing up the first level, suppose to be smallish forest area type area centered around a tall tower. Just have to start adding weather effects and some lighting #gamedev #unity #LevelDesign #indiedev

Man that is so fantastic

thinken I've finally found a sweetspot where I can make models that I like without them taking one million hours

ok see you next month
