In game engines (or even when exported from the 3D modelling application), animation data is baked to a simpler representation because, for games, processing beziers and IKs is way too expensive for real-time. is out, but for now the priority is to stabilize the engine. A transform matrix is no longer used. They now do.

Bianca manually did the retopology for the nymph, unwrapped and laid out the maps, baked the details, and started to spend time learning more about texturing in Substance Painter. Although Pete joined our team as a second Concept Artist (and is damn good at it too), he's proven to be an equally talented Character Modeler. Concept Art.
