We had this really cool little project for fun with a few friends a while back, and even though we didn't really spend much time on it nor go very far with it, I enjoyed working on this little character so much; bold shapes, warm & colorful palette, overall theme, pretty much my kind of stuff!

a Bit of a short notice but I'll be closing my Gumroad account in a few moments, all of the tutorials won't be accessible anymore, but hopefully, new ones will appear on my personnal site soon. Those were outdated/bad, and I want to centralise where to find everything related to my work on my site.

I’d make the art for that, if you want it painterly 🤷

Also, yes, the liquid color, glass color, specular color, height of the liquid, angle of it can be changed, I'm using Custom Primitive Datas here in order to have everything on a single material instance.

Bsky compression is kinda killing most of the subtle details.

Some painterly bottles, everything is fully opaque, using cubemaps for fake transparency.

Had a couple of hours today, added some bricks, moss, dust and water leaks, on top of small plants, everything is pretty "lose" and I'm going try to keep it that way for the all scene.

Bunch of things that includes how the light propagates on the surface, colored terminator, some specular modifications

I've been inspired by great greek painters I saw last week. So here's PBR made out of watercolor paintings. And of course, the normals were handpainted as usual. Made in a pretty modified version of UE5.

The abandonned buildings of Athenes are such perfect references.

As a reminder, I created a Discord server used to learn Env Art, we share references, art inspiration, and try to provide constructive feedbacks. The old invitation link probably died, so here's a new one
