I'm gonna start sharing what I've been working on here: I'm recreating Mario Circuit from Mario Kart World as a study. This is about a month in, I'm making this in the free time that I have away from work so it's definitely slow going. None of what I have here is final, still really WIP

Here are a closer look at the graphics I made for my entry!

off day today, so I modeled a sword-shaped letter opener that I have on my desk to decompress. I should post the main project I've been working on here, come to think of it

I worked on the ship for this mod! I would like to give it some more love (a bit more texture work and some proper renders to boot), but unfortunately I have some more irons in the fire... 👀

the difference between last post and this one is the handle geometry. I decided that I hated how I had it, so I edited the geometry on it and I think it was absolutely worth it!

now I'm cooking, finally calling this almost done, all that's left is to draw an inventory icon for it. forgot to tick CPUAccess in the mesh properties when I re-imported so the VFX bugged out again, but other than that I'm pretty happy with it!

been on this for long enough, so at this point I think I'm pretty happy with where it's at. all that's left is to draw an inventory icon, then it's onto Nexus Mods with it

I added an enchantment to the sword I've been experimenting with; absorb fatigue has VFX that's maybe a little obnoxious when it triggers on strike, but the sword itself is looking pretty good in motion. learned a few things about texturing, and that's hat it's all about

studied up on textures on vanilla weapons in OBR, then I went back and redid my UVs and did some experimentation on the texture mainly on the blade. definitely getting closer, but still a ways off!

it's a lot closer, but it's still a ways off from actually looking like it fits in the world. left is before and right is after minor adjustments. modding weapons into OBR is going to turn out to be really good texturing practice

obviously none of its textures fit with the rest of the world and it's super shimmery in first person for some reason, but it works. pretty cool! I didn't need another excuse to model more swords, but having this in my back pocket is pretty neat to have I'll admit!

Did something for fun, went and did some research to see about doing some Oblivion Remastered modding. I wanted to see if I could throw in the Gotterdammerung fan art that I did back in January into OBR, and it turns out that I can!

I finished! you can grab the mod here: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/...
now I need to get this on my portfolio, and then it'll be onto the next one

2/2 I spent days trying to figure out how the skeleton here could get affected by gravity with no such success. after countless hours trying every option known to man, I eventually settled on the rig being manually offset to give the illusion that the keychain is being affected by gravity in-game

the inventory icon is all well and good, but I completely forgot to mention that I moved the keychain on the other side and agonized over trying to get its physics right. looks pretty good... until you see how I rigged it! 1/2

drew my own inventory icon and tried my best to match the established art of hat, I don't think I did too bad, but it's still pretty obvious that I'm a far better 3D artist than 2D artist 😛

almost there, just have to rig the keychain (which clips into hat kid's head the majority of the time) and get proper sounds

texture on the xeno-basher is done, now to get this in-engine and tinker with the metallic and roughness values, then I'm going to look into making this dye compatible, then lastly give the keychain some physics
