"Mock Trial" by me | (on DA) | (on BSKY)

More like "(No) Mocking Trial," am I (W)right? Who let me do this again!? I need a cool folder name for the Investigations duology, but what?

Back in Japanifornia but later in time (and in a dark haze for the drama). Here, we have an intended double date practice session with the original courtroom rivals, now upgraded/promoted, and their just-as-dramatic understudies as co-counsels (or vice versa?) in a period after the grand societal tension/incident lingering in the previous image is resolved, all in some sort of rush/motion with no one in proper, static form. Well, the prosecution is definitely represented (as much as I was willing to try without [REDACTED]); the defense is a bit obscured: one being just a hand, and his headless boss/mentor dangling from said hand.

I envision Apollo as a size-shifter, somewhat recognizant of his variously split life (IYKYK), able to be small, too, when he feels safe to do so. But as I wanted Phoenix to stay small and just didn't want him directly with Miles again this time, using Apollo seemed like the next best choice since I intended to include Klavier somewhere from the start.

Again, you don't have to tell me I should just write a story; I know! But a girl is still busy... unless inspired. 👀

~more commentary and the references under the cut~

I know the junior attorneys are a bit mediocre in their detailing, but you can't tell me that I didn't eat with the OTP leaders. I still can't be bothered with Miles' hair, but the totality of it all, especially the face and vest, despite the scuffed glasses, is an achievement.

I almost put him in his father's coat for the feels, but the texture pointed me toward using his own, more blue like in the art in-game rather than full black like in the anime.

He's also not built like a beautiful fridge, despite my attempts in manipulating the stock, so let's just imagine that he has a sleeper build, okay?

The same pride for aesthetics goes for Phoenix with his accessories, but the intensity goes even more so for the annoyances, like trying to make his face and hair, only for me to take the L and just hide them altogether, lol.

That feeling when Herr Wright can fit within Herr Forehead's forehead.

my latest oil pastel experiment is this painting of three pine grosbeaks, referencing a CC0 photograph shared as part of an observation on inaturalist.

this one was created on illustration board, with a full under painting in watercolor first, which you can see in the third image. The illustration board texture has a wonderful grain and could be a very satisfying surface for oil pastel, but it tends to warp pretty dramatically when painted on with water-based media. you can see any image on the right how much it has bowed out while wet; what you can't see is that it has an inverse warp in it once dried. clamping it down to draw on it released some but not all of it. unfortunately this means it's just not a good solution for anything with a watercolor under painting.

inaturalist has been a really exciting thing for me to explore, and once I discovered that you can search observations by image license I got really excited. if you're also looking for reference, especially of specific animals, it might be a great place to start.

Sapphire Hero Rewritten 2.0.

I have added a prologue (it's short, but it helps the player to go quickly into the gameplay part without an info dump at the beginning).

Music on every level. All that music is under CC0 license (you can see who made which music in the credits). Also, you can change it with your own music; just check the mods/music folder.

Custom heads and UI for the player character (maximum 3). Check the mods folder, where you can find all the textures. Just change them to what you want.

Updated trees, still not good, but at least better than what was before.

More info you can find on itch.io page of the game.

Happy new year.

im bored so im explaining 3d art/video game texture maps now hi.

Colour/Albedo

A colour map represents what colour of light is going to be reflected off a point, or basically just what colour the point is. An albedo map is the same as a colour map but with all shadows and highlights removed. This is more important if you want things to be extremely physically accurate, so you need to have things without any shadows already in there.

Normal/Bump map

A normal map represents the "normal" direction of any given point, and tells which direction the light reflects, basically the 90 degree angle away the surface. Basically "what direction is this point facing". This is really important for adding very small detail without needing to add more geometry. It uses 3 colours to show the x/y/z direction of the normal(you can use 2 and calculate the third with math though). A bump map is similar in how it can make micro details, but instead represents how high a point is off the ground, and uses black and white to mean lower and higher. Phased out in support of normal maps, since they're much more powerful, but bump maps are easier to make procedurally.

Roughness Map

A roughness map is how rough a point is. Yeah. on a scale from black to white, black is a completely smooth surface which is mirror like, and as it gets higher the refections get blurrier until it seems very uniform. It's a lot more noticeable on metal, however i've included both a metal and non metal reference.

If the art style you're going for is ANY way realistic (most cartoony nintendo games use these, realistic is very loose in this definition) you're going to use at MINIMUM these three. however there's situations where you need more.

Metalness Map

Represents whether a given point is "Metal" or "Non-metal". If you're being physically accurate it can only be 100% metal or 0% metal, however you can cheat it a bit and use grey values in certain situations. This type of map is really useful on metal textures with rust, scratches, dirt, or if an object has both metal and non metal parts. Pairs extremely well with a roughness map. The second image is a metalness map only, third image is metalness with roughness

Displacement Map

A displacement map represents the height of any given point. Instead of a bump map which changes the way light reflects, it's used to change the actual geometry. Displacement maps can be used for large details and normal maps for smaller details. The second image is displacement only, and the third image is the same displacement combined with a normal map

Hey, hello! Welcome!

I'm a blogger, artist & designer. This is my space for artisting and designing. Sometimes, I illustrate; sometimes, I make stickers. I dabble in collage. Right now I'm spending 90% of my creative energy designing stickers to match my personal water bottle (as you do).

As far as collage/design stuff goes, I do my best to make sure that all elements (fonts, textures, illustrations, photographs, etc.) are appropriately licensed, 99% are CC0. If you notice anything amiss, please let me know! (Also, I do not use AI generated design elements in my work at this time.)

Infinity Symbol Art for Autism Acceptance Month

I made a couple of mobius Infinity Symbols on transparent backgrounds, one using the Neurodiversity rainbow colors and one in gold for Autism Acceptance Month (inspired by this tumblr post).  CC0 Public Domain -- want, take, have.

I modeled, textured, and rendered these in blender (free, open-source 3D program), if you want the .blend file (also CC0 Public Domain) it's in this post at the Blender Artists Forum.

8 Best Websites for Free High-Quality CG 3D Textures & Materials

What is 3D Texturing?

3D texturing is the art of adding life and detail to a 3D model by applying textures to its surface. You can create textures in several ways—either by painting them manually, scanning real-world materials, or using algorithms to generate them procedurally. The process of 3D texturing involves more than just slapping textures on a model; it’s about bringing it to life. You’ll start by sourcing your textures—whether from photos or creating them from scratch—then apply them to your 3D object. After that, you’ll set up the lighting for the scene and fine-tune everything until it’s perfect.

How to Add Texture to 3D Models?

To add textures to your 3D models, you’ll need software that supports 3D UV mapping and texturing. UV mapping is like giving each part of your 3D model a set of directions, telling it where to place the 2D textures. Essentially, it’s the process of laying out your 3D object’s surface on a flat, 2D plane so textures can be applied accurately.

For example, in Blender, you can adjust the material properties either in the Properties editor or through the Shader Editor. To use image textures, you’ll need to download the texture images first. Once you have them, import them into Blender through the Material Properties tab in the Properties editor. Don’t forget to adjust the Viewport Shading to see how everything looks as you make changes!

[gmgp-artist-log-sebastien]

After creating a model for the game, my first call to action was to texture it before sending it off to the programmers to implement, or add it to the scene myself if needed.

After studying art styles and the way the older style of textures were made and designed in line with our art style.

This was the first time I had experimented with using Photoshop for texturing, as I wanted to try a new workflow, I had previously noticed the PSD support in Maya and wished to put it into practise. As someone very experienced in texture modding for games, I have prior experience with this method I believe will be incredibly helpful for me.

Whilst it may seem more intuitive to use Substance painter, Its heavy emphasis on displacement maps and detail didn’t lend itself as well to the more old, cartoony art style we wanted to go for. The detail I wished to create would be baked directly into the texture.

After finishing up a model, I UV cut and ensured each part of the model would have enough surface area to fill with detail, I am then able to export a .png image of the UV's themselves to then edit within the program.

After exporting the UV maps, and fill each quadrant and bevel it to give depth and detail, also giving a faux shadowed effect on the main body of the car’s surface.

After base colours were completed, I was then able to add decals, patterns, and overlays created by myself or by using public domain (cc0) resources from online, the slight metal texture being a fast example of this.

Using Maya’s built in PSD support, I received real-time updates on each of the changes I made within the Photoshop document, allowing me to experiment and quickly test changes.

After verifying everything is the way I want, looking correct and as intended, especially ensuring no overlapping or warping. The texture is then exported to ship out to the game engine. Taking into account aspect ratios of textures, scaling them down to 128 or 256 depending on the level of detail necessary as well as the distance the model will be from the player.

This results in a successful rendition and rendering style of the style of PlayStation 1 and 2 games!

Textures themselves were either created by hand, from scratch, using photoshop's features for manipulating and applying effects and lighting to block colour. Or when necessary, I sourced images from either CC0 Public Domain Textures or took them myself.

I made heavy use of shadowing and patterning, I was able to create patterns using real life images, mirroring them and ensuring correct looping. I then used blend modes to emphasise and offset these details, before once again.

Likewise, I'm personally quite proud of this new workflow, I found it to be effective and also accurate to the way textures were designed in our targeted visual style. Also resonating well with both group members and testers.

I still believe I have to improve upon the consistency and material settings I decide to use, but am overall happy with the look of the finished assets, especially their place within the game and on its tracks and environments.
