Since I keep seeing that meme of the cat in the red bag on my for you page MULTIPLES TIMES a day, with that dumb song that gets stuck in your head, I ended up making a fanart of Fika [ #overwatch #overwatchfanart #fanart #digitalart #art ]

Little concept for one of Orium's future ships. Not at all on the same level as Star Citizen lol but at least I've got all the info to model it easily [ #art #conceptart #indiegame #indiedev #scifi #starcitizen ]

Cargo ship concept : Industrial spaceship from SCorp, in shades of blue, steel, and yellow. It can transport containers along the lower part of its bow. It is a ship built by a feline race from Orium

The advantage of being both the art director and the 3D artist on my own game is that I can be too lazy to open Ps and instead just scribble with the mouse and still call it a day [ #indiedev #gamedev #3Dart #Blender #scifi ]

Not at the GDC but still #WhatAGameDevLooksLike I was a 3D artist at Mi-clos studio for +3 years until we went through mass layoffs, I also ended up with burnout (fun✨). I took advantage of this mess to take time to create my own #indiegame. Now I do a bit of everything 𝗬𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘀𝗼 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗼𝗼𝗹 𝗯𝘁𝘄!!

My eldritch monstrosity (silly handspinner mob) has finally embraces its full unspeakable horror (got his textures) and is now waiting to terrorize the galaxy (not now, I'm too lazy to integrate it in my game) [ #textures #3Dart #indiegame #wip #OriumGame ]

I was supposed to do a simple and quick sculpt but I went all out in ZBrush on this mob ( +it ends up looking like a handspinner 🚶‍♀️) [ #3dsculpt #Zbrush #blender #indiegame #wip ]

Here are the finished buildings for Orium ! They're not very detailed because they'll be seen from far away and we might generate a lot of them in-game [ #ScreenshotSaturday #indiedev #Blender #scifi #gamedev ]

1. Factory
2. Laboratory
3. Extractor
4. Biodome
5. Bar
6. Observatory
7. Hospital

I'm currently working on building modeling 👷‍♀️ It's not very detailed, the textures are all on a single trimsheet that I update as production goes along. But since these small assets meant to be placed on planets I take the time to optimize them ! [ #ScreenshotSaturday #indiedev #scifi #gamedev ]

1: Sci-fi bar
2: Factory
3: building with several domes and a floating structure
4: Space hospital (sadly Dr House do not work here)
5: (in the middle) Observatory with big telescopes
6: Laboratory
7: Big tower

Little concept art of Bogg ( I think it's my fav character in Orium ) [ #indiegame #art #digitalart #indiedev ]

Concept art of Bogg, a human with mechanical parts. He has a nonchalant, tired look. He's tall, broad-shouldered, and wears a long red coat. Other sketches show Bogg looking surprised or proud.
