WIP Small Works Art Thread

Not yet fully finished but character is around 23000 polys right now : (and there is still the full body of the character under the armor, will be more optimized later. the design comes from my character's drawing : (drawing is a bit old and not really representative of what i can do today xD , sorry ^^" )

I'm willing to make a video game one day of a comics story i've been working on for a while.







The model is actually 23000 polys but it's not finished yet.

 

Kill it with fire! Here´s our latest version of the Fire Skeleton variation shader =)

 

Hi there! We´ve made progress on the Fire Skeleton shader and VFX, here´s how it´s looking We´ve managed to include some inertia to the flames so it looks more interesting when the character is moving. We will add some secondary VFXs and start packing for AssetStore. Cheers!

 

I´ve managed to include GPU Instancing on the Flame effects, this means it´s literally possible having 100 of those Skeletons at stable 220FPS!!!, I´ve been testing on a i7 3.6GHz / GTX 960, you can expect even better performance on new computers.

 

Hey everyone, just wanted to post this here and see if I can get some feedback. Just to explain a bit further... I'm working on my portfolio and have decided to use Unity since it's what I know more of and I hate ue4's way it handles light mapping. I'm working on this desert environment piece which comes from my imagination for a world within a project I had in mind, if the game were to be made. I thought I would try and be creative more but this is a work in progress along with the pillars which are not final but the cliff pieces are finished.

Is there any feedback someone can provide to me at it's current state, perhaps any environment artist that may be lurking around. I've been working hard on this and want to make it look as good and somewhat realistic as possible. I will be showing this to one of my old professor whom has worked in the game industry for many years and I want to make a good impression. He has helped many get into the games industry and I want to show that I can make it. Another thing is some of my textures appear blurry most of the time. I'm not sure if this is due to the texture import settings which I've done every possible change I could in the import settings. The only thing that sort of helped was making the resolution 4096. I also made the textures in substance painter and used the 4x4 anti aliasing option which I think might be why they are still appear a bit blurry. Also if anyone can point out any way I can improve the lighting and atmosphere? perhaps there are some good addons I can apply to get better render results. I do have the post processing stack and it's being used currently but I figured there would be more I can do. Seeing the recent unity projects they've shown really impressed me and I feel like I may have to get to a quality which seems more like a team effort. Please if anyone can give me their feedback I would be most appreciated and will work hard to make this look as good as I can.

 

GPU instancing is awesome! I have 500 Dross Enemies on iPad Air2!

It is a GIF so its moving! Heres it static with more!

When you Zoom in tho, This is what they are

500 of them! Super impressed with GPU instancing!

Heres my site: www.TeamDerelict.com

 

polycount is the best place for feedback on art.

 

Modular medieval characters in development for a Unity game. Been learning and messing around with Unity lighting and post process, and I'm pretty happy with the quality I've been able to achieve so far.

 

Little scene I'm making

 

I released my pack, it's available now:

 

Ground mesh Test!

https://forum.unity.com/threads/roc...development-thread.381438/page-3#post-3564700

 

So this is how the mesh turned out, it could actually be used as a splat or even terrain texture.

Early material test




In Unity




More renders

 

Nice work!

I would love to see the script you have to move them.

I'm working on a Doom clone and would like to have up to 500 enemies on the screen.

Right now I'm capping off at 100 enemies before physics starts chewing my CPU apart.

It seriously goes:
100 enemies - 70 FPS
110 enemies - 30 FPS
120 enemies - Slide Show

And my profiler is a big fat orange bar.

 

Ok now it's a mesh!!

Spoiler: See more...

Close Ups:







On another note I think I found a way to have wind for my trees.

 

Made some simple rocks that I covered with fast moss for my other ground meshes, will be mesh parts to include in the pack.







I also removed the grass from some of the modular rock and cliff models so there will be a version without grass to and tomorrow I'll attempt to import my first "Custom Tree Importer" that works with wind.

 

A scenery made during my free time.

 

I remember being impressed by your landscapes years ago. This one looks beautiful.

 

Thank you Blacklight!

 

This was fab!! Did you use SEGI on this?

I remade the tree stump texture into something more HQ. Having that improvised texture from when I rushed to upload the pack was really bothering me.

 

Reminds me of Guts from Berserk manga. Especially sword and helmet.

Tried pixelart for the first time and messed with Bosco Ceoil.

Yeah I agree on that one!

Nice pixel arts!

Started making the new trees now. Made a slightly different bending of the trunk also, using particles I am able to randomize my branches. I think I might make fall and winter variations. Now all I have to do is make a few more different trees of the same type by remaking new trunks and spreading random particles.

 

Just trying to make comic stylized graphics.

 

Thanks! No, build in lighting.

 

Very cool.

 

Finally started to make my base texture for the beech tree. I got the scratches and some molds down, I'll make more variations for more trunk age and tearing.

~Model in wip~






Snow here I'm playing with more SEGI. I'm actually glad I changed to the standard shader, it doesn't look bad!

 

Ok, I realized I can use the texture from the detail mesh as terrain tile. Makes for a good muddy material, some puddles would be nice now.

 

Working on the sequel to my adaptive music pack: Hero Fantasy Pack Vol 1.

Hero Fantasy Pack Vol 2 uses the same concept as the first pack in its essence. All themes are in the cinematic heroic fantasy vibe and consist of 2-4 sections where each section is splitted into further 2-4 parts. Each part differs in dynamics so you easily can make transitions from softer scenes to more tense scenes or battles. This makes the scene transitions easier utilizing middleware like FMOD/Wwise/ELIAS since all wav files have natural decay at the end so no weird audio glitches. Just set the correct BPM and drag n drop into FMOD for instance (BPM and time signatures is documented in the description PDF.) If you're not using middleware all the parts come is seamless loops as well of course.

There are also stingers/hits for each theme so if you want to end a part with different type of hits or make a transition between different parts or scenes you can try some of them out. They are all adjusted to the BPM and time signature as well for drag n drop in the middleware of choice.

Here's a short preview of one of the themes from Hero Fantasy Pack Vol 2:

 

Bit of work I done did, anybody recognize the little picture in the corner ?

 

My latest personal artwork. Please take a look. Hope you like it

 

love this, would love to see more
im trying to remake the trainlevel. but i didnt get any further than the weapons only.

 

Modular medieval characters are close to finished... hair and beards are in the works.

 

Trying some new approtach with unity, to create special effects for maybe music video in future

 

Thanks, I will post more when I got more.. this is just a side thing

 

Beech Tree Leaves

Leaf with tree variations for my beech tree model.
Modeled in blender and texture with substance designer.
I have to admit I got a bit lazy on the cells and just inexcusably tiled them with a 256px texture but at that small size, no one will be able to tell! All I need is a leaf generator in substance and I can spread them all around my environment and add them to the tree of course. I might update them with more edge cutout.

Just playing around with some environments. Used the speed tree modeler software to make a handful of trees -- funnest program ever. I'm addicted to making trees.

Grass is fantastic unity asset store purchase : photographic grass, IIRC.

 

Used a generic human model as a scale reference. so far I got an ok scale.

 

I pushed unity real-time rendering to the limit with this simple hack I made, more like a trick for myself tbh...
I like the way SEGI treats emission and GI as real lighting and not some washed out lightmap, it helps give some definition to the normals where you have shadows but what it was missing was contact-shadows. I couldn't buy a AAA pack from the store so I come up with my own free solution by overlaying ambient occlusion effects on top of each other until I got soft shadows/AO. The effect isn't too accurate but it's better than nothing. (SEGI + post processing + my contact shadow hack)



Gi boost

Spoiler: See more...

Sharp

Spoiler: See more...

 

Here are my new renders with the new workflow!





Comparison images of unity forward rendering with GI and PP off and my GI on.

Spoiler: Comparison GI On/Off

 

Hi, nice work!
Does SEGI work under 2018.2 HDRP ?

 

No, it doesn't, at least the version I'm using it's only made for version 5 : (
I'm still trying to grasp the HD rendering myself right now but I'm waiting for unity to develop it more. If you want graphical improvements I suggest looking in the asset store but if you want to do it free you have to find workarounds. My hack is mostly good for image rendering but I can use it for real-time if I tone down on the quality, which is something I'm gonna do if I make videos. What I did it rather silly and not good for real-time video games but rather to get a better look.

 

Gotta apologize for today's spam~!

I made my first substance material!






----

Made a crate texture using the new substance.

 

Small update, if anybody is interesed.. I am looking for a programmer with expericence with fps games. I really want this Soldier of Fortune remake thing to be something.

 

im willing to contribute
ive allready made 5 weapons for my attempt at recreating the train level

 

Very nice work!

 

"Enchanted Forest" Vol. 1
​

Working on a collection of interactive short films exploring the beauty of a forest.

Endless Code

 

Having some fun with the Unity HDSRP... took a part of the weekend to update the visuals of my characters, starting with Subsurface Scattering... something I've wanted for so long to be natively supported in engine. Using the Amplify Shader Editor, I can now create unimaginable levels of detail on my character's skin.

Still a work in progress as I want to add microbump, subdermis, and peacefuzz...

 

Continued environment work for our game.

 

Messing around with the post-processing stack and some water shader today. Might turn this into a short film or game idk
