Week 02: Game Resolution / Uv and First Bake of Knife

 

Proxy and High Resolution Sculpt of GW 6681 Spring Assisted Knife

 Here are my references for my knife project, I decided to buy the knife to have for real life inspection to get a better look at the intricate pieces I could not see from the images below. 

Once the proxy was completed, I continued to make the high res, proxy, and booleans in maya and move over into Zbrush.

After exporting the knife from zbrush I brought the High res into Maya and did some renders in arnold with basic materials. This week I will continue to make the game res geometry and add textures.

Vegetation "Moss" in Unreal

 For the vegetation for the base of the cannon I ended up using sculpt detail and paint in substance to make it look like there was moss / algea from the ocean on top of the rocks I sculpted for the environment. 

Here are a few close ups of the moss detail. 

Final Presentation of Cannon and Environment

 

Here are some of the final renders of the cannon in ue4 with the environment attached. I ended up fixing some connection issues in my material and it solved my roughness being to low:

 The final images that I chose as reference for my cannon environment were the ones below:
