Finally centralized all my “next-gen” pixel art experiments into one ArtStation post (at last xD). These learnings will definitely come in handy for this new side project I just started with my friend. #pixelart #unity #gamedev

More of these on https://x.com/orb_3d Just some personal experiments with pixel art and lighting. I was curious if I could bring in a bit of what I’ve learned from 3D and AAA work to add more depth...

So far it only offers handmade animations, which aren’t always very smooth. It’ll probably need a mocap option to compete with Mixamo’s quality. Also, adjustable arm spread was a nice feature. I'd love to be able to snap the camera in 45 degree angles as well, like isometric.

This could become a strong contender to replace Mixamo, which remains widely used despite being completely neglected by Adobe.

My 2017 Cintiq 27QHD, is showing strange vertical smudges... Now their 27" is twice the price I paid (not including their ridiculous stand at 600 dollars). I think it's time to try other brands and stop giving money to wacom.. Huion any good?

In 2000, the S&P 500 had an elevated trailing P/E of 26, well above its long-term avg. of 14. For the next 11 years, the S&P 500 delivered zero returns! The current S&P 500 trailing P/E is 30 – even higher than 2000. History rhymes. For standardized performance visit our website.

10K nice! I've been exploring some terrain for my game, trying to use 3d but process the textures to get more of a pixel art vibe, while being able to rotate the lights. It's a promising start I think.

I still believe lighting is hands down the most important step of a game. Not models, not textures. This is a great example of immersion, using simple geometry with pixel art textures. The lighting does most of the heavy lifting and your brain fills the gap, which is great.

First, they replaced real food with processed junk that wrecked our metabolism. Now, Big Pharma is here to sell us the "cure" for the damage. It's a rigged game. It's time to fight back with the remedy they took from us: Apple Cider Vinegar. 1. The… https://t.co/i8A76KIbKy

I'm thinking of using baked animations for my breakables with some flying particles bits. It's very cheap and looks pretty convincing. We just can't interact with the pieces and it repeats visually, but I think it's ok with enough variations.

made a moss variant for fun, using the green channel of the normal map as a base mask.

This is nonsense. Portfolio is king, always has been. If you're good, you're good, no matter how you got there. It's that simple. What matters is that you don't stop learning, not how you learn.

Would you agree that pots, bells, and censers are basically the holy trinity of objects that just naturally look cool?
