3D art and comfy gaming // Sharing my journey and experiences on the long road to becoming a master 3D artist

@iamCodec These people are afraid because their entire livelihood relies on society's stagnation at everyone else's expense. Largest parasites mankind has ever seen.

@iamCodec If I were a member of the National Guard, having to "guard" the reflecting swamp would genuinely be magnitudes more demoralizing for me than going days without food😆Like imagine having to detain people just because they touched the water lmao

Doing re-topology for the first time has been an enlightening experience. Seeing how poles affect shading, getting to experiment with ngons, getting a general feel for what works and what doesn't - it's all been very productive🤠

@ThatNgonGuy @Vizor_tm You're gonna have to upload the files for yet another asset at this rate 🤣

[Tirvallo @Tirvallo]

Wow, I think I'm actually finished with the base mesh for the flash hider. Quite happy with how it's turned out so far. Wrangling the booleans for the first time was definitely a journey, but I feel great so far. Looking forward to nailing the re-topology after a short break.😁

@KatDoes3D Gonna use this for the sole purpose of rubbing the gold monkey primitive's head for good luck

[Tirvallo @Tirvallo]

Got started getting the base mesh down for the second project! I decided on the Ase Utra Hiper-S flash hider and DUAL 556-S Gen 2 suppressor combo. Two relatively small objects, but with some very interesting details which have already presented me with fun challenges🤠

[Tirvallo @Tirvallo]

@three0_ B is perfect

[Tirvallo @Tirvallo]

@KatDoes3D Exactly. That's what I mean by shape, proportions, scale, etc. I started work on a flash hider and was stun locked over the exact measurements for the internal and external threading - matching exact thread count, undercut length, and so on. Am I overthinking it all? 😅

[Tirvallo @Tirvallo]

I think a big hurdle I will have to get over in 3D art is the strong obsession with making sure all measurements are perfect. Hopefully, my second project, being something with no publicly available measurements/technical drawings, will help me let go of that habit.

[Tirvallo @Tirvallo]

@KatDoes3D Same - very obsessive and very compulsive. Getting proper proportions and scale down seems to be most important. At the end of the day, it's a game/portfolio asset so being a millimeter or two off likely won't affect anything at all, so long as it looks good to the eye.

[Tirvallo @Tirvallo]

While taking a short break and preparing for the next project, I made a couple of stencils from the Spanish naval ensign from the San Ildefonso 🇪🇸, which took part in the Battle of Trafalgar. I wonder what the warship's crew would have to say about my use of their ensign😅

[Tirvallo @Tirvallo]

@zorrio7 Gives me Stonehenge from Ace Combat vibes!

[Tirvallo @Tirvallo]

@DeepNotShallow That neo-nazi bit is genuinely scandalous ffs

[Tirvallo @Tirvallo]

@boltondynamics Photos staring down the barrel of a gun, accentuating the rifling (or some other inner component), will always be peak

[Tirvallo @Tirvallo]

@JoeWilsonEQ1 The whole discourse wasn't anything new to me, frankly. A 3D role in game dev is the goal, but not the only way forward. I personally have no issue using my 3D skills for other fields - I will continue to make mods and game assets in my free time regardless. I love it too much!

[Tirvallo @Tirvallo]

@MarsdanVM Love that grip and hand guard 😍

[Tirvallo @Tirvallo]

@JoeWilsonEQ1 This is why I always make a conscious effort to check myself to make sure I don't get in over my head with some grand, elaborate project just yet.

[Tirvallo @Tirvallo]

@vladimirdesigns @christophredl94 Couple more of that BCM rifle from their site plus a couple others I thought were especially interesting!
