Paint Test for fun

Half-baked paint test testing technique.

Marvelous Designer Rug!

Beginning work on a Marvelous Designer rug for Unreal 4. Thanks to a great breakdown Here.

ArchViz Update

Small update for the evening. Learned how to use color LUT files for real-time color correction. Pretty cool stuff; great official guide from the folks at EPIC here.

ArchViz Scene Update

Quick update to my scene over the weekend. Got the lighting more or less ironed out; time to add content! 

Huge thanks to the guys (and gals!) over at Dimensiva.com for their free models. Really quality stuff

ArchViz Scene - Test 1

First shot at some Archectectural Visualizaion in Unreal 4. Huge props to Koola over on the forums. For a full breakdown on scenes way more kickass than mine, check out his thread Here.

Modo Mesh Fusion

I did a little test with Modo's Mesh Fusion plugin. I've always hated/despised/been afraid of/procrastinated against (proper usage of word?) hard surface modeling. This plugin is a true joy.

Unreal 4 - Kickass Ocean Shader

Last night I fiddled around with a truly amazing ocean shader posted by Mikepote over on the official forums. See the thread here. 

He's put it up as a free download with explanations and I highly recommend taking him up on his generous offer. If nothing else, it's a great example of some of the engines more advanced shader features. Thanks Mikepote!

Unreal 4 IES Light Profiles

Some quick IES tests. Downloaded a nice set over at MrCAD - you can simply drag any .IES file to the Content Browser, then plug them into the IES slot of your light. Pretty slick!
