Hey everyone. I wrapped up my new diorama recently. It's called The Scarlet Pocket and you can find the Artstation gallery here: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/XJmvm0

I've been making video devlogs about the creation of it. Watch the first part here:

In this first part I talk about how I approached going from a larger diorama, to smaller, more focused cut of land.

From there, I go over props and how I block out the scene to then jump into Blender and Zbrush and refine more finished geometry.

Tune in if you like watching art devlogs! I hope you enjoy it.

Thanks,
Pete.

Hey everyone! I decided to try out video format for my latest personal project. Watch above to see my art pipeline inside of Blender and UE5.

I hope you find it interesting. Let me know what you think.

My new post in a brand new series is out. You can find it in the link above.
The past months I've been working on a new environment scene and this blog entry is about the beginning of that.

In it I talk about game prototyping, initial influences, Houdini and VATs.

I've tried to include as many insightful screenshots, videos and links.

As some of you might have seen through my portfolio, The Neon Graveyard is finally finished.

I wanted to make this one final post, to wrap up the last eight entries of the series. I want to do that so I have the opportunity to sort of mark and number the entries, as blogs can sometimes be a bit chaotic, and it might be hard to keep track.

You can see a gallery with the finished work over at my portfolio.

There are quite a few videos over there, so if you haven't already, make sure to check it out.

Index.

The making of everything seen above is documented in eight blog posts, that I wrote between January and May of this year. If you haven't read them, now is your chance! I'm sure there would be some intriguing insight in there.
