Ahh that means a lot, your work has such a great energy to it! Really enjoy seeing your problem solving in the time lapses! 🙏🙏

My final piece for Blender class! Wanted to try using the model more specifically for layout and rendering, while solving the color and details afterwards in Photoshop.

This was my penultimate piece for the #Blender class I took! Set out to treat this model as more of an underdrawing, and build it out specifically with the camera in mind.

Another experiment! Trying out using two separate UV maps— one fully lit and one fully in shadow. The thought was that hand painting the lights and shadows would offer more granular control over the colors (and allow for some fun pops of saturation that only appear in the shadows!)

The textured model and its geometry!

Yep, class was through Warrior Art Camp— 9 weeks, all online! I've tried a couple small intro level tutorials in the past, but nothing made it all click quite like a two month boot camp did.

Modeled out all the innards and then lowered the alpha! Think I did some fiddling with the material to get that blur in the translucence, but it looks like I lost those settings when I updated Blender. Nothing fancy though that's for sure, I didn't know what I was doing haha!

Topology's not the cleanest, but here you go! The class was focused just on Blender as a tool to help with visdev rather than making usable game assets, so good topology took a bit of a back seat.

Ahh thank you!! I took Kelsey Roland's Blender for VisDev class through Warrior Art Camp— would 100% recommend it if it gets offered again, absolutely fantastic class!

Whoops looks like that GIF didn't work! Let's try this again—

A couple more early pieces— learned a lot from doing these two! (Plus a first couple attempts at drawing into the models after the fact!)

The framing of the class was to make pieces relating to an original story pitch. Took a couple characters from an old illustration, reworked their designs a bit, and went from there— the first assignment was to design a food stall that could exist within the setting!

A handful more BG designs from various season 2 episodes!

A few more backgrounds, these ones from the top chamber of a tower on an uncharted island from Season 2 Episode 3!
