Indie dev building something new 🦊 Exploring AI + game development Sharing the journey

Here’s a bit of my hand-painting process in Blender. I’m not an expert, so any advice is very welcome!!! I usually start from black and paint while thinking about where the light comes from #GameDev #3D #Blender #IndieDev #Texturing #speedpaint

Had a creative block, that’s why I haven’t posted. Thought I had nothing worth sharing… not true Been exploring the game idea and making rough sketches. Ugly, but very valuable for me and the process #GameDev #IndieDev #AIArt #3D #thinking

I usually go from general to detail, but this time I tried a different approach. I started with the details and will blend them into broader changes later. Wish me luck šŸ˜… #GameDev #AIArt #3D #IndieDev #Blender

Not a big update today. I’ve been exploring ways to improve the textures and see if they fit my art style. Starting to wonder if I really know my direction… or if I should go back to planning #GameDev #AIArt #3D #IndieDev #Texturing #Blender

Found something interesting šŸ‘€ #PicoBerry meshes had more vertices but fewer faces than #Meshy Turns out it splits the mesh into parts (not perfect cuts), that’s why Pretty useful for game dev PD: UVs are chaos :3 #GameDev #AIArt #3D #IndieDev #Unity

#PicoBerry is by far the most accurate so far (based on the references). Great textures, solid mesh. I’ll check the UVs next, but I like that some parts come already separated. Very nice work @UModeler šŸ‘ #Unity3D #Unity #GameDev #AIArt #3D #IndieDev

Tried #PicoBerry today šŸ‘€ For a beta tool and my first low poly attempt, this is pretty impressive. Topology is better than most tools I’ve tried #GameDev #AIArt #3D #IndieDev #LowPoly

Fixing the textures now. UVs aren’t great except for baking, but for simple hand-painted work, it should be fine #GameDev #AIArt #3D #Blender #IndieDev

I’m continuing with the retopology of a character generated with #Meshy. At this point, I’m not even sure if I’m saving time with AI… or just spending it fixing things šŸ˜… Maybe I just need to improve my workflow somehow #GameDev #AIArt #3D #Blender #IndieDev #Retopology

There are still some topology issues, like you can see here… Looks like I’ve got a lot of work ahead šŸ˜… #GameDev #AIArt #3D #Blender #IndieDev #Topology
