It’s my birthday today.

I’m 26 years old, and I think I’ve been doing 3D art for about 6-7 of those years.

Thank you for supporting my art!

I kind of feel like this now that my age is starting to sound serious:

Hi there,

A small new YouTube channel called "Jarkin" just launched. It breaks down concept art and pre-production materials from games like Concord and Highguard.

No hate- just a look at these projects through their art direction.

Highly recommended, please watch it.

Here’s a small find I rarely see mentioned in @Substance3D
I usually add an HSL filter to keep all blending modes in my new fill layers in Passthrough
But in Substance Painter, you can adjust ALL layer settings right when creating it(RMB)

You can also copy all blending settings

I just wanted to point out some differences in your segments in these areas. When working on something like this it’s important to keep segment hierarchy in mind

Also, this is just one possible solution. I was keeping quad-based topology in mind while working on it.

[Joe Wilson @JoeWilsonEQ1]

People will tell you not to use ngons and turn around and suggest quad topology that should get their Blender license revoked

Game dev & YouTuber @MR3Dev makes videos about game development and everything around it. I especially recommend his playlists on how 3D models look in real, shipped projects.

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.

As always, I recommend checking out their resources page yourself (https://t.co/Ay89iJDpeh), because there are plenty of other useful goodies there as well.

And thank you for reading this through.

[BlueOxel @BlueOxel]

Articles from @marmosetco website (https://t.co/Ay89iJDpeh) that, in my opinion, are worth at least skimming through:

He explained his approach to building composition for a render. I especially liked that he tested everything directly on primitives.

One of my first 3D models. Still love it

Viktor Andryeyenkov (?) launched a personal website where he shares his experience in 3D.

Highly recommend his articles:

Nicolas Bucco (@?) runs a great YouTube channel on environment art- Next Level Game Art.
He breaks down how game environments (were likely) made.

His early videos come from his Udemy course- haven’t watched it yet, so can’t say much.
