There are too many awesome people on bsky, so I will try to post here a bit more often. This is my current project on which I am working. Still an insane amount of work has to be done, but created this rough cinematic before my vacation in September. Now back to work with renewed energy 💪🏰 #ue5

I am feeling the best GA when there are 2 strong candidates and choice is not obvious. During this year it was a bit strange. I would not say there was an obvious decision , but can't say there was anybody who is really strong choice

I was thinking this is very fancy render for second :D

Heyo! I’m a lead lighting artist @ nVidia. Previously Bad Robot Games and Naughty Dog. I do #gamedev #lighting #artist things, mostly environments with some characters and occasional C++ shenanigans. Former social media recluse, I am BACK. And I apologise in advance for all the things.

Only Unreal 5.5 feels like something proper for shipping and even it still has issues

The latest dekogon castle is not bad, but it is only a castle . Still a nice base for PCG experiments

This is the same modular kit which I did for my sigmarite church. Now I just expand the kit and create more variations

Sergei Leoluch Panin @leoluch.bsky.social · 20/11/2024

I am sure I will not have enough motivation to create the whole city, but layout started to feel pretty good

And all of them are great 🔥. Just replayed Batman Arkham Knight. Man, this light, this mood. Still not feeling old even single day.

Heyo! I'm a Senior Lighting Artist @ Cloud Chamber, working on the next Bioshock. Prev: Naughty Dog, Blizzard, Gearbox. You'll find shitposts, #gamedev, books, my cats & the occasional art update here. 💙 Check out the #Lighting #Artist starter pack on my profile for cool people to follow!

Blue-ish gray light pours in from a hole in the ceiling of medieval ruins, overgrown with vines and ivy. Warm candlelight is scattered along the ground.

A rainy alleyway lit by pink and blue neon signs, cyberpunk vibes.

A man stands in the doorway of the kitchen in a small house, holding a flashlight. The light is pointed at a body half visible across the room. Ther are signs of a struggle.

An establishing shot of an abandoned warehouse exterior, warm spot lights illuminate the path filled with trash by a brick building.

When you have good modular system and good content it is pretty cool how many stuff you can assemble. I just started to explode my kit, but with 5.5 it's going pretty juicy

Started the same way from the first hades :D and then completely dig into it . Super addictive.

Well, they got the best ongoing award and their reputation back. I agree that it was MUCH more than that, but it feels like the team is still proud of their work :) would be much worse if they got nothing at all

There is such a concept as cultural dimensions map in management. Was really insightful during management training. It is not "final truth", but give a lot of ideas why some things really different. Especially if the company not very international, like 80% native - 20% abroad.

Sergei Leoluch Panin @leoluch.bsky.social · 15/11/2024

Seems I am not quite ready to say goodbye to this medieval project and I am still not doing Warhammer game, so I decided to continue my nanite exploration in 5.5. I decided to take my old project with castle on the river and nanite remaster. And it is very promising start !

Some heavy conversion on top, but the model was awesome . I especially love how many bits in this kit which you can use for some chaos ideas

With the latest release of #arcane new season I would like to share my old project which I never finished. I wanted to do a district in Piltover with the vibe of architecture of old st. Petersburg, but it was too complicated in the end. Still have this dream

Sergei Leoluch Panin @leoluch.bsky.social · 08/11/2024

I think I just got used to the 1st person camera. In isometric shots it is rare about composition and lighting. Also realistic scale rarely work nicely with realistic proportions. But somehow for this building It "clicked" in a good way

Sergei Leoluch Panin @leoluch.bsky.social · 08/11/2024

It would be cool to do so overgrown terrain

Sergei Leoluch Panin @leoluch.bsky.social · 07/11/2024

I am not a huge fan of isometric shots , but this one still looks so nice that I can't not post this one #3d #warhammer

Cooked a build today. This feeling is really nice. Much more today on artstation !

It was very productive weekend and I hope to close this project this week. Trying to understand what I want to show in final publication without 20+ images of each lighting and shot :D

Thank you! It is just funny that it is the first time when I follow my own advice properly. Advice which I have given to students for years. I am very straightforward with my students when they overscope things , but when it is about myself - hold my beer xD

Sergei Leoluch Panin @leoluch.bsky.social · 02/11/2024

The biggest lesson from this house is the scope of work. I can make good content, but every time I instead take something epic and gigantic and just get tired of it. And drop quality level. So, do not think you make "small boring house" - execution matters. And design

Thank you ! Somehow I feel this would be your favorite one out of 4 :D

Started to work on videos. Small sneak peak. Still some things have to be done, but it is so close already !

Sergei Leoluch Panin @leoluch.bsky.social · 30/10/2024

Started to work on polishing each individual lighting scenario. I pretty often receive questions about how not to lose focus when you are working on the location. This is an example of the comments which I do for myself. I placed this image on the second screen when I lost, I just check with it

Starter packs seem to have helped many find part of there audience but there scattered to the winds so making a thread of them, you find them add them be they art, dev any kind of creative outlet and see if we get more people with there audiences and find new ones.

Thank you! I have seen this in one prop art test, that you need to do different states and decided it is a cool idea for the environment. Last push and will be finished soon!

Sergei Leoluch Panin @leoluch.bsky.social · 28/10/2024

I love destroyed and overgrown stuff, so I will spend a bit more time on this variation.

I think there is enough drama for one place and we can finally have a nice mood somewhere
