Enrico.
I work on an ever-expanding environment art project, inspired by my Mediterranean culture.
3 Months in a few seconds.

This time the video actually plays correctly 8{

Apparently I am worse than my grandma on socials and uploaded a cropped image. Here is the full picture!

you can see it a bit more intense here. Of course a painterly normal is essential to achieve the proper effect.

In the project I just published, I added a fresnel node to the specular channel of the cliff shader.

In my opinion this makes the asset look more vibrant as now the cliff will have a sharper contrast. It gives me more painterly vibes.

Good idea or bad idea?

My project is finally done! 🌞🚚

I will publish a full cinematic with audio and soundtrack on wednesday, but here are some key shots in the meantime.

Have good evening! :)

Me: Finally I am ready to wrap things up and make beauty shots for Artstation.

Unreal Engine: "How about I freak the fuck out instead"

...

It's gonna be a long day 🥹

For my new env, I made a "fake" godray shader.
You simply apply to a cone, no volumetrics.

Fairly versatile: you can control wind, noise and glitter intensity.

If you want it, let me know in the comments, I will upload it for free on Gumroad.

5 years of working in Unreal and I only now realized you can use the CameraRigRail for other things, other than, you know, moving cameras.

DUH, Enrico. 😵

I made an ugly tiny tutorial for tilt shift.

I know it's probably common knowledge, but it took me a while realizing the effect requires a regular camera and not a cinematic camera. 🫠

I hope it helps!

More devlogs from the Mediterranean!🌞

I added some tilt-shift and suddenly I made the trailer for a delivery game where you play as a tiny italian truck driver.

(Also testing the new .GIF support, finally!)

The mediterranean journey continues!

More WIP shots of my art project. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! 🚚

And by that I mean: I got no more time, I gotta call it done soon 🫠

One last push!🏃‍♂️

Van's texturing is nowhere done (as the env took precedence),

but I decided my priorities included adding colorful string lights.

Look how it

Today lots of gloom and doodling on a FlixBus.

Later, more updates on my Mediterranean scene.

Gotta bring back that summer sun. ☀️

More devlog on my mediterranean project!

Amongst other things, today I added a paintbrush mask to the landscape, to have a more interesting blending between the layers of the landscape.

I overlapped my truck mesh with Unreal's default buggy vehicle.

The tempation to keep the offsetted wheels is strong (but it would mean to much work to adapt the model).

They look sick tho.

More work on the delivery truck for my upcoming UE scene.

Next step will be some texturing, inspired by #CaravanSandwitch art direction.

Ready to take it for a drive in Unreal Engine!
