WIP - 95% of the way there! Just need to do a bit of texture polish and clean final renders!

Doing a few environment blockouts in #ue5 for my #indiegame project and experimenting with the UltraDynamicSky plugin. It's all coming together! Mixing unfiltered textures with realistic lighting seems to work great!

Finished up the farm windmill for my current #indiegame project! Continuing in the same same retro unfiltered #pixelart texture style as my previous assets for the project 🍃

WIP - Have slowly but surely been grinding away at this semi-stylized M4 model! Trying to go through and finish this and a few of my other backburner projects over the next few months.

Slight texture variation on my jersey barriers - will primarily be adding decals in Unreal to add character to these but having a ready made striped variant will make things a bit easier.

Working on a set of Jersey Barriers with unfiltered #pixelart textures for my #indiegame project. Something really satisfying about making simple assets like this 😄

Quick still render! - seems like video compression is muddying this one up a bit

Finished up the wasteland windmill for my current #indiegame project! First asset I've finished up in a quite a while with retro style unfiltered #pixelart textures 🌪️

Started a small new project a few days ago - working on a fan art sculpt of the India Pale Flail from Heroes of Barcadia! On to retypo and texturing next 🍻

So, an idea I've been throwing around for years is attempting to make all the Link to the Past inventory items in stylized 3D as a daily or weekly self challenge. Maybe its time... 🤔

Okay! So *knocks on wood* after swapping out hardware and seriously considering throwing it out a window a few times... I *think* my new build PC is finally ready to make art 🥳 Here is a WIP of a semi-stylized AR I've been slowly working on with my laptop 🤣

Built my first new PC in 8-9 years… couldn’t resist customizing a bit 🤣💀

Since the video compression is a bit excessive on this for some reason... here's a still!

Got my low poly shipping crates into #unrealengine. Used some of my old procreate doodles to make graffiti decals. love how they ended up looking with the unfiltered #pixelart style textures!

WIP - Been a 3D artist a long time now… I’ve surprisingly never modeled any kind of AR pattern rifle… 🔫🤔😅 Still blocking things out mostly! Gonna more than likely make it semi-stylized in texture and proportion.

Back at it in 2025 🥳 Put together this low poly #pixelart texture shipping container to kick things off! My goal this year is to start posting a few things a week again.
