Only had a couple of hours yesterday so I decided to throw together some quick base textures for trims and props. Needless to say there's noticable tiling. I'll probably do most of the individual nuances on the textures in the shader instead of in the baked textures.

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.

spent a few hours making the highpoly today. I got some shapes left to do, but part from that it's almost ready for a bake.
