The gold trim is done. I used some some free/public domain 2D vector images (circled in red), those are not my designs. there's a little bit of free space just in case I need to add something. I'll definitely make minor adjustments, but this is ready to be used in my scene

sprite art of two werewolves. One is a newer version on the right, with a redone design and entirely redone pose. overall, the one on the right is a lot more focused and better drawn.

One scrolling noise can feel monotone, and another layer of noise panning at a different speed breaks the repetition and makes an effect believably random. This was created in the Portfolio class, next group starts on October 18th: www.vfxapprentice.com/courses/port... #VFX #GameDev #TechArt

Make detailed texture trim sheets using only Toolbag’s texturing tools, without touching a high poly. By building everything with vectors, profiles, and brushes in Toolbag, you get clean, editable forms that snap perfectly, flow along curves, and blend without seams.

I dreamt of retopology 😅. Her body's retopo is done. Next is her head and that'll be denser. The polycount is already at 43k tris, which isn't bad, many character models that are around 100k and that's typical. I've tried my best to optimize. The hand was a nightmare. #davysartcorner #3D #gameart

4.8 will be the strongest godot release in a while texture streaming, contact shadows, multi-bounce AO, lightmap specular, 3d trails, mesh buffers on gpu, visual shader groups, label text fitting, symbol renaming, more flexible editor layout and a lot of ui improvements what are you still missing?

Went from 28 FPS to a rock solid 60 FPS on Steam Deck just by tweaking my SubViewports #Godot Quick Tip: If your project uses a lot of SubViewports (as I do for signs, labels, letters) and chokes on low end hardware (like Steam Deck), drop this script on them Huge performance boost for a #gamedev
