I'm avaliable from Mid Dec for full time work, also looking to get some small gigs going in the meantime to also help bridge any gap I end up having to eat. #GameDev #TechArt #VFX #Lighting #EnvironmentArt #FX #LookDev #Shaders #RealTime #UnrealEngine #UE5 #Houdini #Substance

Yes, that's easy to set up but it's really useful integrated as part of the procedural modeling.
