RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 09/12/2025AWW that's so kind!! and such a lovely interpretation too, I adore warm soft sunlight so much. I appreciate your words so much too, thank you!!!! 😊 000
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 08/12/2025Will post the sketchfab link in case anyone wants to gander! (the wood shaving material was supposed to tile correctly but I totally missed the giant seam lines) sketchfab.com/3d-models/wo...sketchfab.comWooden Mushroom Carving - Download Free 3D model by rjducatsAn afternoon project practising pipelines and trying to replicate a stylised wooden material quality. Sculpted in Zbrush, reptopology/UV unwrapping done in Maya, and textures created in Substance Pain... 020
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 08/12/2025A quick afternoon project! I'm in love with how wood carved objects look and wanted to give a go at making a blocky/chunky mushroom (though it does feel a bit like a bonsai). Left is an unreal render and I've shared some screenshots on the right from sketchfab ˙▿˙ #Art #3D #mushroom #UE5 #Sketchfab 1318
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 04/12/2025Started working on a small scene to practice making materials, material blending, and making modular parts but totally lost steam 😭 I had planned to delve into decals and some foliage too but I might step back for now, either rethink the project or start a new one. 0296
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 18/11/2025Aww thank you so much man!! I totally get that too, one of the bigger hurdles was planning the breakdown and battling unreal engine to get things looking right 😊I appreciate the kinds words! 000
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 18/11/2025I get people now are having a harder time distinguishing real from AI but man does it suck to see someone call genuine artists work AI. I really can't see there being a time where we can revert from this culture now too, generative AI has left a scar. 020
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 17/11/2025Been doing a lot of environments and props recently but finally snuck in some time before bed to do people sculpting ˘︶˘ #Art 0293

RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 17/11/2025I can understand that, it's getting difficult to discern some ai slop videos at a first glance too. It's a heart breaking state for creatives to navigate against. I adore cosy aesthetics but I may have pushed those warm tones too much. I try to share wips and breakdowns, which hopefully helps^^ 😔 100
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 16/11/2025Oh... that's really disheartening to hear. I'm guessing it's because of the warm tones..? I absolutely despise LLMs and GenAi slop, there's no use of ai in my workflow from references to final renders. It's all made by me. 110
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 15/11/2025Thank you!!! 😊It takes so much time to get the right renders but it's also super rewarding seeing how the final renders come out 010
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 15/11/2025I've found that I'm thinking myself in circles about the renders and elements in here so it'll be a bit easier to get feedback now that it's all in a single page. My files are starting to become a mission to navigate 🐧 010
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 15/11/2025Finally publishing this project 😊Got in some beauty shots, a short panning video, some close ups of props and a few break downs sharing wireframes. www.artstation.com/artwork/NqQWZN #Art #Portfolio #EnvironmentArt #UnrealEngine #UE5 #3D #Stylized #Fantasy 4335
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 15/11/2025rendering and trying to compile everything to look nice has been such a huge time sink, also sifting through the wireframes, beauty shots, and additional pages but I think I've sorted most of it out now. should be able to wrap things up soooon #Art #UE5 #stylized #books #shelves 0245
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 09/11/2025Unlit to lighting rendered view! Have spent some time filling in spaces with smaller clutter assets and updating textures. Aiming to set up some cameras for renders and prop close-ups so I can get some feedback on presentation 🌿 #Art #wip #UE5 #stylised #3D 0203
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 03/11/20251872 triangle shelf! I have these little cylinder feet that take up like 640 triangles on their own 😩but I'm having a lot of fun slowly cluttering this scene! I created some variants of this shelf too since it's all floating objects, will share them later 😼 #Art #3D #Prop #Shelf 0132
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 02/11/2025Made a chair today! I've got a warm light blasting in unreal so it's a lot warmer in engine, also seeing some spots that need attention on the chair (some areas catch the light weirdly). Progress feels slow but this coming week I'm gonna full send it 😤 #Art #wip #UE #chair #3D #stylized 0316
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 02/11/2025no but literally!! I get this as well. I've drawn so many random characters in the past but never properly created an OC. 130
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 24/10/2025Needed some walls so now we have a little scene to show the props off in!! I'm still adjusting textures and redoing meshes on older props but messing around in unreal is always so fun. #Art #3D #UE5 #Stylized #wip 0102
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 21/10/2025YES! absolutely adore how WoW goes about stylisation. The chunky bold shapes are such a treat on the eyes 😊 010
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 21/10/2025Spent some time earlier today making a wooden plank floor for my scene! I worked slightly differently when sculpting the forms but I'm glad it didn't mess up the tile of the wood. In-engine scene is quite warm but I'm digging how chunky and worn the planks came out. #Art #3D #texture #wip #UE #wood 2194
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 15/10/2025Thank you!!! I'm a big fan of those subtle detail plus they help a bunch when I get to baking/texturing 😊 000
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 15/10/2025Thank you!! 😊I could stare at alariko's work endlessly so trying to translate it into 3d was so much fun 010
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 15/10/2025Couldn't help myself and added more scope to this rework project but it's been fun! Hoping this kitchen piece supports the smaller props and makes the overall project more interesting to look at. ✨ #Art #Zbrush #Stylized #3D #wip 0264

RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 10/10/2025Hii hiiiiii, new prop update for my fantasy scene rework, a tankard! Also realising I need to take a step back and create a proper game-plan for this project, development has been directed on a whim so far. #Art #3D #UE5 #Stylised #Fantasy 0113

RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 05/10/2025omg happy birthday!!! 🎉also those plushies are so cute 010
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 04/10/2025Thank you!! It's been eye opening seeing how far I can reduce these old meshes down from what they were. Feels like there's still so much room for improvement which is exciting ✨😊 110
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 04/10/2025OH! I didn't notice when taking the screenshot in maya but the table is just rotated around the wrong way^^ Flipped it back and it matched the planks 120
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 04/10/2025I was so short for time that I rushed parts of this project back when I was studying but it's a bit wild to see how little information is lost after dropping the triangle count down by a quarter. This one took longer to re-do, lots of weird bakes but it's coming out well I think! #Art #3D #wip #UE5 4344
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 04/10/2025New mini updates~ I was able to find my old textures for the utensils and plates, I love smart materials. Also feel like there's still a bunch of room for optimizing the uv space and meshes but it's super rewarding seeing the bakes come out looking not scuffed! #Art #wip #props #substancepainter #3D 0201
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 29/09/2025Still yet to texture but it's neat seeing the two cleavers side by side in engine. #Art #Cleaver #3D #UE5 #UnrealEngine 1213
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 26/09/2025Made a cast iron pan for my portfolio piece rework. Sitting at 700 tris right now with some quickly slapped on textures. Hoping to chuck a bunch of props onto a texture sheet and focus on optimizing, might see if I can drop the tris down more since it isn't a complicated object. #art #pan #wip 0231
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 24/09/2025noooooo it cropped out the text above the cleavers 😭Chopped this into 4 images so that the single cleavers would have the text visible at a glance 020
RJducats @rjducats.bsky.social · 24/09/2025Trying out a different shape for the cleaver but material rendering is kicking me. I think the new cleaver has a more interesting shape but I also tried editing the old cleaver to be less rigid. #wip #3D #ZBrush #Cleaver 190
