Little bit of hard-surface practice this weekend.
Also gave me an excuse to model a VHS cassette, something I've been wanting to do for for so long! 😊

First post intro: I'm a professional games artist with more years than I can count (I'm not good at math) under my belt. I have a YouTube channel dedicated to helping others learn about game art. I have primarily focused on shaders and VFX in Unity up until now.

hold up, so if you apply this, that geometry is then baked into the underlying mesh?!

A quote from Garry Newman [Garry's Mod] I think about often

A screenshot of text on a website

The title text says: I don’t know anything

The body text says: If you’ve never made games before you have a huge advantage. If I’d have had any industry experience before making GMod I probably would have never made it. Your naivety is a huge advantage, it’s your edge.

Don’t try to emulate people who are in the industry – do your own thing, make your own mistakes, find your own way. It’ll lead you down a bunch of paths that no-one will ever take because they know the ‘right way’. The world needs those paths explored.

I changed the way I work a couple of months ago to follow this advice, it made a big difference and my productivity went up by miles.
