Shaping the Games Look & Feel Concept art acts as the visual blueprint for the games characters, environments, and props. Developers focus on: Shader programming to fine-tune lighting and material properties. Bringing Assets to Life Once assets are finalized, they must be imported, optimized, and tested within the game engine.
We created 4 UV sets of each car and wrote a shader that swaps them. Players are able to create their own tracks using road parts, obstacles and props. Majority of props work on the same principles as the rest of assets. That allows us to reduce the size of the game. Track components .
Back in the world of environmental concepts, another of our artists, Ila, took on a concept from our ever-growing list of items and props. Next up in the realm of items and props are the Kotakayan weapon concepts pictured below that were created by our super talented Concept Artist, James.

.” - Bryan Bentley, 3D Modeller (Rango, The Golden Compass, The Incredible Hulk) 3D modelers are world builders who help flesh out scenes in a film or game, digitally sculpting the environments, props, and characters of a production. 3D modeling software 3D modelers use a range of software for modeling, sculpting, and texturing.
Writes shaders, writes scripts, works with code. Prop Artist : Creates the wire frames that form the shape of not living things. Given a description, then comes up with different visual concepts that could meet that description. The description is refined, and the process repeats. Technical Artist : [ The hybrid artist/programmer ].
link] [link] [link] In the last issue of the Kristala dev blog, we showed off some of the props our 3D Environmental Modeler, Cass, had been working on that will be used to detail the various water villages that comprise The Dalamase. Here are some shots of Fede's WIP. Take a look.
Moving forward, Joe will continue to refine and improve the look of the fur, adding a dither effect to the hair shader to soften the edges of each card. Next, Pete exported the hair cards into Unreal in order to build a universal hair shader that could then ultimately be applied to every fur-havin' character in Kristala.
With the armor and character revisions completed, Nick moved on to a brand new task: a dungeon prop list! To get her feet wet, we had Iuliia kick things off by working on a couple prop furniture models that will be featured in the Nisargan houses and villages you've been reading about in the past few issues of the Kristala dev blog.
Luckily both engines offer asset stores that allow users to download free and paid props, shading, textures, and many more. Incredibuild makes Unreal Engine even better by speeding up its code builds and shader compilations. Unity increases its execution time, whereas Unreal Engine does not.
