wip chill low pressure sculpt to relax a bit because today has been a day 🙃

Olja Osypenko @sautii.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

Thanks! That's exactly how I see tech art for production, but the topic seems to be very controversial for the portfolio pieces😅 Looks like the safest option for now is to limit AI usage and to explicitly mention it if I end up using it. And ofc avoid posting vibe coded scripts that I can't explain😄

Olja Osypenko @sautii.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

Hmm i see your point, makes sense. Thank you! I guess in the end I just have to reevaluate why am I even working on those personal projects. If it's just for fun, I can use whatever I want, but If it's for portfolio, I should probably be more intentional about it 🤔

Olja Osypenko @sautii.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

But on the other hand, you are right and it's not that clear what is my knowledge and what's not. BUT on the other hand, what's the difference then between copying a piece of code from an ai chat and from copying the same piece of code from some random forum (so what everyone did before ai anyway) 😅

Olja Osypenko @sautii.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

Thank you! I have the same opinion as you regarding the art pieces, but I'm super conflicted about anything more technical. I think a piece where I use ai (credited ofc) shows that I can take advantage of the currently available tools and solve problems faster, which is good for production (imo).

It's fun to notice a problem, to think about different solutions, try out stuff, read the docs, learn smth new, be happy when it finally works like expected etc.But it's not fun to execute it till the end, e.g add 3 more buttons and labels and such if i already know how to add a button and a label ☹️

Olja Osypenko @sautii.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

what's the opinion of the art/tech art people on partially ai coded projects in a tech art portfolio? tools and such, no ai art asking for a friend (me lol)

The 8th and final Artstation post showcasing what I have worked on for Super Meat Boy 3d. This one is mostly videos of random tech art-y things that didn't fit into previous posts 😄 artstation.com/artwork/Ao94By

Love the team so much and appreciate that they allow me to touch pretty much everything in the projects haha. Makes me feel that I'm bringing the most value I possibly can 🥹😭 3d is awesome, but making sure that my assets are (mostly) ready to use by others is just something special 🥹

Excited to start sharing what I've worked on for Super Meat Boy 3d ✨ Starting with the asset I'm the most proud of, as it allowed the level designers to prototype and build final levels faster^^ Created the tilesets, blueprints, textures and a few helper scripts. www.artstation.com/artwork/zxaAad

Hey have you ever been like "I don't want to delete that duplicate asset and tell it where the duplicate is. in Unreal Engine's content browser because the loading bar takes forever" and who has time for that nonsense? Buy my plugin so you don't have to!- That's it, that's the ad. xoxo gossip girl

As of today my official role in the company changed from 3d Artist to Technical 3d Artist 🙂 Kinda happy, but it also feels pretty underwhelming cause nothing really changes and i'll just be doing whatever i've been doing previously 😄 Yeah well 😄

Another WIP less than 1.5 minutes, a few clicks and i have a Substance Painter file with my mesh, textures exported, everything set up in UE and (mostly) ready for further iterations and reexports🙌 still MANY issues, but happy to see that my idea is coming to life

Olja Osypenko @sautii.bsky.social · 29/12/2025

Part of a wip personal project🤓 Import meshes and the rest is automatic: it creates a material instance, auto imports and assigns textures. Existing MI & textures can be reused, so no duplicates. Param names, prefixes etc are stored in a data asset, all the logic is in a custom Interchange pipeline
