I'm a 3d artist and hobby game dev, trying to focus on short projects that inspire me right now.

I use Blender, I try to texture everything procedurally with Blender shader nodes, Krita when needed, Game Engines... I prefer Godot.

I've been too busy to even touch blender lately but I love that I was posting works in progress. Seeing the three progress pics I last did. It's actually extremly motivating to come back to the project when my life becomes less chaotic.

One very clean house later, I got back to work on Ashura's Shrine!
Ashura's Shrine or dungeon underneath Death City, The Kishin Ashura Imprisoned by Lord Death a scene from the anime Soul Eater. Made in Blender and exported to Godot, detailed textures made procedural with blender shader nodes, and flat textures with Imphenzia's Pixpal pallet.

Started my first texture pass today and dialed in more of the atmospheres and lighting.

"He was defeated, skinned alive, drained of all his blood, and the dried up body and soul was stuffed into a sack made up of his own skin to seal away him and his Madness."

From the Soul Eater Fan wiki

Working on environment and atmosphere at the moment.
Ashura's Shrine or dungeon underneath Death City from the anime Soul Eater. Made in Blender and exported to Godot. The textures right now were blocked out with the Pixpal pallet from Imphenzia.

1st look at my new project!

Ashura's Shrine from the anime Soul Eater

I love dark, beautiful, painterly enviorments, and I see them a lot in different Anime and this scene has been living in my mind for awhile.
A blender scene with the rough layout of Ashrua's Shrine / dungeon where he's been held captive for hundreds of years in a bag That lord Death made from Ashuras own skin. Made in Blender with a simple array modifier stack and vertex modeling. Rough colors placed with the Pixpal pallet. A Godot scene with the rough layout of Ashrua's Shrine / dungeon where he's been held captive for hundreds of years in a bag that Lord Death made from Ashura's own skin. Made in Blender with a simple array modifier stack and vertex modeling. Rough colors placed with the Pixpal pallet. Exported to Godot Simple gameplay will be added with Phazor Knight's Cogito Template

What's up cool People! I've been working on a small indie game for a couple months but I'm ready for a fresh start on a new project!

Small anime environments made in blender, playable in Godot!

Feeling like I'm losing motivation to work on this. I really want one more material before I really go through and texture the sword... At least the blade is facing the right way now...
8 different procedural metal materials in blender. Hammered, light wear, heavy wear, battered, rough, brushed, etc, and antisotropic? I forget what it's called.... A Saber in blender with a hammered metal material on the blade, the handle hasn't been textured yet.

You know that feeling when you want to make something so bad the idea won't leave you alone?

The pommel was made with boolean modeling, the entire hilt relied on lattice modifiers after I had the base shape, the blade was made with a plane over the blade reference.
A 3d modeled sword in blender with two reference images, one of the hilt, and one reference image of the blade.

Trying to get back into the swing of it. I've been too busy to touch my computer lately and wanting to see what could be done with boolean modeling a sword. Definitely an experiment to be iterated on it.
Two textured swords in a blender scene with rough boolean modeling boxes to the left.

Busy busy busy... I've got a lot of projects going on! The three panel materials were made to texture and make cool a couple spaceships, and then the crystal material I have earmarked for a cool hard surface asset I have yet to make but sketches have been made!
Four spheres and a low poly crystal procedural textured and shaded in a blender scene. starting from the far left gray on white scifi panels, a detailed black on blue paneling, a green and red on black paneling, a orange crystal sphere with light displacement, and a series of low poly procedural textured purple crystals.

I've been trying to get into hard surface modeling lately, most tutorials seem to use addons... but I'm broke so I've been playing with booleans.
A Blender scene with three objects. A series of objects lay over a boolean-ed cube. A 3 x 4 pallet of 3d textures in the middle, and a finished textured bollean-ed cube to the right with grunge and rusty peeling paint material applied to it.

Day 14 Honestly I'm not sure about this one. I was trying to combine a couple different techniques I've learned to make a stylized wood... I don't think it reads as wood though.
A blender scene with a sphere and a square block. It's supposed to be a anime stylized procedural blender shader of wood.

😑 I hate that I'm posting on an odd numbered days of doing this. Day 12 and 13! I was watching a guy using a scratches texture and I'm like wait! I have a tutorial for that!

Super excited for the New Year! Bite me 2025!

#Blender #shaders #Procedural #scifi #scratches
A beautiful blender scene of procedural materials, one is a sphere with rough black scratches in it's surface, the other is a cube with different colored scifi panels covering it.

I ended up taking a few days off and now I'm back! I'm helping out with a scifi hobby game so I made a rocky moon surface, and a planet material... I ended up redoing a lot of the planet to make it all one shader instead of mix shaders.
#3d #Blender #Shader #scifi #planet
A blender procedural shader, a pallet of material textures to the left, and to the right two material spheres. One is a orangeish red planet with clouds, the other a rocky asteroid / moon surface.

Day 7 and 8, I found a nice little hard surface sculpting tutorial because I knew I would want something custom for the procedural edge masks and then I saw a beautiful render with moss everywhere and knew that had to be next!
Procedural materials in blender, a monkey head with moss covering half it's face and a yellow and blue mechanical looking half sphere with the procedural material brings out the shiny and rough worn sections.

Day 5 and 6 of building my procedural material library. I'm trying to lean into more procedural effects that can be layered on top of other procedural materials to make them pop more.

I was really liking how my fingerprint material came out so I decided to clean up my node graph to screenshot too!
Its a screenshot of a blender procedural material, the image is split in two, the bottom half is a collection of procedural nodes that blender uses to control the color, roughness and normals of an object. The top half is a collection of procedural materials on cubes and a larger blue metallic sphere with procedural fingerprints all over it's surface.

I'm really enjoying procedural materials right now. Getting to accomplish and finish several things in the few hours I have in the mornings has been refreshing.
#3d #digitalart #procedural #blender
A collection of 12 cubes to the left stacked on top of each other 3 by 4, and two spheres to the right. Each cube now has a different material on it ranging from snow and wood to cloth and rusted metal. The two spheres look like rusted metal the first only light rust, the second has large chunks of it's surface eaten away by rust.

Day one and two of building a procedural material library in blender! It's been fun getting back to basics and getting away from game dev for a moment.
#blender #proceduralshader #3D
A scene in the 3d modeling program Blender. A serious of cubes 4 high by 3 across in a digital space. Half are a pale green, the other half show procedural 3d textures for dirt, copper, snow, and ice. To the right of the scene is a larger sphere that shows the more detailed ice and snow material.
