First #PortfolioDay of the year gang! I'm Linda, a freelance 3D artist based in the Netherlands. I'm always looking for new, cool freelance gigs to collab on, so please don't hesitate to reach out if you're looking for someone to help you out with your 3D environments! #3d #gamedev #gameart

A screenshot of my latest diorama piece; a bright blue, but old and rundown food truck. It is parked at the side of the road, near to the sandy beach. The truck is an old Citroen H van model.

A wide-angle screenshot of my Greece scene. In the picture there are white, bulky buildings with blue accents marking the doors, windows and distant, round rooftops. From the buildings there are large groups of pink flowers growing. In the middle of the scene stands a fountain that ties the street scene together. Along one of the corners there is a small, blue table set with some Greek treats sitting on the table.

A screenshot of me Rome scene. There are beige-tinted walls, decorated with growing ivy and in the center, there is a light-blue Fiat 500 parked.

A close-up of some large Monstera leaves from a jungle diorama scene that I did last year.

This is a great thread @hillsguy.bsky.social, I'll add a bit more context here for anyone interested. Yes there's no fancy sim - it just uses a water interaction buffer as a target for the particle system rendering, so we could use the power of particle system we already have.

Unemployment continues, so I figured I'll learn how to sculpt in zbrush for the first time. This is roughly 2 hours of work, loosely following a tutorial. I think it came out ok, I'm really enjoying it. #zbrush #3dmodelling #sculpting #3dart

Can anyone recommend a really good place/person for ADHD assessment for primary aged girls? So many seem to whip out a diagnosis without much feedback, support, follow up etc. This place looks excellent, though the pricing.. phew! autisticgirls.co.uk/private-auti... Feel free to message privately.

Why doesn't #Artstation lets you search by colors? wallpaper websites from 10 years ago had this feature, feels like a nobrainer for an Art website? 🤷‍♂️ I know you can just type in a color like red and then sort your results, I was talking more about picking a color palette via color picker

Fractal Sum Base is the king of noises in #SubstanceDesigner. At low roughness and low-medium Min Level it can be used for similar purposes as perlin or gaussian noise. With a high roughness setting it can step in for Clouds, BnW Spots or White Noise. #quicktip #gameart #procgen #substance3d
