Did some more work on an ongoing environment piece in ue4. Quick shader tests, plain ol' dynamic lighting. Nothing super exciting yet.

didn't have a lot of time today so I just UV'd and made a quick test bake in marmoset and painter and it pretty much came out perfectly the first time. Nothing special. 

I decided to build a quick high and low poly mesh for some texturing practice. Cycles 5min Clay renders min samples.

Couldn't do too much today due to time constraints, so I threw it in Marmo together with some placeholder lighting. Starting to tweak the texture balance for ue4, marmo and painter.  I'll prob do some proper renders sometime this week after I'm done with all the textures.

Made this as a test for the bakes, I'll finish it after the revolver is done.

had some time over today to make some texturing. Still ways to go. I think the gloss is messy and the grip is in really early development. The bare metal is too smooth and need some sanded tlc.  Made a few default Irays along with some screengrabs to see what's what between the 2k and 4k texture.  pay no attention to the glare.

Did a optic and finished out some of the details on the revolver. I actually might do a strope/flash too.  The placement of the red dot ain't very good... and having this specific optic on this revolver ain't very clever either, but it sure looks tactical.

Due to work and Sekiro (almost 100% that game now) I haven't been able to post anything lately. I'm supposed to do a bunch of foliage work on the environment and start meshing out the background, but I felt I wanted to model something today. So I started blocking out something fun. Just getting the major shapes in there. Still stuff missing stuff and some parts are not aligned but I'll do that in the highpoly. Frankly there was so many cuts I could have it done it in Moi and retopo it inside of Blender or MODO instead. The grip need some work too.  I'll start sub-d'ing later in the week between Sekiro grinds.

Been busy the last few days, but I managed to model some flowers 'n stuff before bed time. Some baking and designer work and then I'll throw them in the scene too.
