Sharing some more work I did on People of Note! This time, several assets featured in the game's battle system. Had a lot of fun making these and seeing them in-game was so rewarding! 😁 Full post below!! :))

Tested out some grass I made in SpeedTree! Gonna start adding plants into engine as I make them :))

Jonathan Ma @jonma3d.bsky.social · 27/05/2026

Been thinking of maybe trying streaming out. Was thinking of steaming my process of learning speedtree and maybe some personal work. It'd be nice to interact with other artist

Some clover practice with speed tree 🍀 This is so much faster than what I would have done before. Might start practicing, bring some into engine to test out the workflow a bit :))

Jonathan Ma @jonma3d.bsky.social · 25/05/2026

Some more speed tree practice with a flower! 🌺 Gonna keep at the grind!

More plant practice reps this morning! Pls ignore the wonky normals on the leaves. Your boy is still learning the buttons 😂 I had a nicer version of the first one, but my software crashed 😭 It's been fun going outdoors and looking at plants to try to recreate in Speed Tree 😁

Jonathan Ma @jonma3d.bsky.social · 23/05/2026

More plant practice from this morning. Not really all that close to what I was going for, in terms of shape, but that's a part of learning something new! Gonna keep at it! ✍️💪☘️

Jonathan Ma @jonma3d.bsky.social · 22/05/2026

Starting my speed tree journey! Something I've been really wanting to learn to improve my pipeline for creating foliage. Starting super simple, but I'm already enjoying this so much more than my usual way of making foliage! 🌱

Jonathan Ma @jonma3d.bsky.social · 21/05/2026

Trust The Process 💪 Something I've gotten better at over the years and am still improving at. Understanding art will always have an "ugly" phase, and being ok with that has helped so much with my productivity 😄

Excited to share more work I did on People of Note. I got to help with creating a bunch of different shop signs you'll find throughout the world of Note! 🪧😁 I love how it all came out in the end! Full post below!

Finally found the time to finish making a post of some of the work I did on People of Note! 🥳 I had the chance to texture all of the weapons/instruments throughout the game, which ended up being an awesome experience 🤘🎸 Link to the post will be below! 😁

Two weeks ago, I flew out to LA to celebrate the launch of People of Note, a game I worked on that had so much love and passion put into it! 🥳 In many ways, this was a dream come true, being able to meet so many people and celebrate something phenomenal! I loved this journey and this crew! 🥰

Made a little swimming shader for my fishy friend!

Jonathan Ma @jonma3d.bsky.social · 27/02/2026

Made some updates to the scene. Some pretty drastic changes to the lighting, but I think it made a very nice improvement. I feel like I'm getting close to the finish line 🤞😁

Jonathan Ma @jonma3d.bsky.social · 24/02/2026

Some shader work I did this past week. Wanted to create a paint splitting effect for the wood in the scene. Think it came out pretty nice, but might make a few more tweaks later down the line 😊

0183

Jonathan Ma @jonma3d.bsky.social · 20/02/2026

Made some more progress on the scene. Focused a lot on adjusting things like the composition and color values, and I'm happy with the improvements! Still more to go, but getting closer to the finish line! :))

Jonathan Ma @jonma3d.bsky.social · 07/02/2026

Worked a good amount of time on this over the past week. Been focusing on getting all the assets I want in the scene, now gonna focus on polishing those things up! :))

Jonathan Ma @jonma3d.bsky.social · 05/02/2026

I've been really liking adding these subtle shader animations within my projects. It really helps bring life into my scene :)) It was also really fun to make the part of the shader that let you switch between different characters/symbols as well! 😉

Jonathan Ma @jonma3d.bsky.social · 02/02/2026

Hi Everyone! I haven't posted in a while, but I wanted to share a project I've been working on. I was always too self-conscious to share any WIP shots, but I wanna try and get more comfortable with that. Gonna try to post again and share my progress on this one 😉

Jonathan Ma @jonma3d.bsky.social · 27/09/2025

So excited for this to have been revealed! It was such a great experience working with this team and I can't wait for people to try it out themselves!! Wishlist on steam!!!! 😁

Thanks, everyone for the support on my post yesterday! It's been a while since I added a new project to my portfolio. Even if it's nothing big and took some time, I'm still proud to have completed it😊 It's been a bit of a road block, but I'm excited to create new art now😤💪

Jonathan Ma @jonma3d.bsky.social · 25/03/2025

I got sick last week, but I was able to make a bit more progress on my little project. :)) After checking my values, I made more lighting and texture changes, and I think it looks better.

Jonathan Ma @jonma3d.bsky.social · 17/03/2025

Worked on the foliage and made some changes to the lighting last week 🍀💡 I'm happy with the changes I made, but I may reach out to some folks with more lighting experience to get some feedback😊 Gonna move back onto texturing after taking a break this weekend. Wish me luck 🤞

Hey #PortfolioDay I'm Pete. I'm an Environment Artist at Rebellion and below are a few of my finished pieces (plus, the first image is my current work in progress scene). Not looking for work right now but wanted to share some of my art with you. #gameart #3Dart #indiegamedev #UE5

A screenshot of a work in progress, stylized tower. It's made out of placeholder white and gold materials. It has three floating spires that have started to get textured. One is orange, the middle purple and the other blue. Each represent the Mage specialisations in World of Warcraft (the main inspiration behind this art). There are also green crystals scattered about. The tower sits on a curved landscape with a placeholder green material. The background around are light and dark blues.

A screenshot of a dark, ruined interior. There is a door on the right that is a jar, spilling daylight inside. In the very middle of the interior, there is a vortex. Above it floats an orb. It's made out of stone and at its polar sides, there are lots of blue gems attached. They shimmer in the dark. Around the room, there are lots of roots that have blue flowers attached to them.

An UE4 screenshot of a cyber noir graveyard. There is a cathedral in the distance and smaller mausoleums closer to us. On all of those structures, neon lights are attached. They read "Personal Eternity", "Back up your Consciousness" and more. The neons spill electric colors onto the headstones around the graveyard.

A moody screenshot of a Japanese style shrine. There are lots of wooden structures. They are made out of warm, dark, colored wood. On the right, there is a shrine and tons of orange lights are scattered around it. Those are lit bamboo candles. There are lots of stone statues depicting different animals like frogs, rabbits and cranes.

I'm on a roll and messed with Viktor a little more today! Still trying to decide exactly what I want to do with the hair so this version still may not move forward but we shall see. At least made a large headway on a low poly version of his face

Quick doodle. Mirror queen and her maidens that reflect back her visage. Thought about doing an animation with this ideal some time.
