scifi game asset style

a circuit board which i modelled and textured using blender & gimp

we are back at it again with the 90s style 3D shading - this time ? assets and "finding the style"

all the scenes in this article have been rendered inside of blender using cycles engine renderer, textured using textures created inside of gimp and photopea, and then dithered further in post-processing within shotcut for that 90s prerendered look and feel

on a side note i do want to say a massive thank you to the team over at photopea for creating yet another excellent and powerful FOSS option for artists and designers right in the comfort of our own browser - the aim with my project is to only use free and open source options for developing my project, not just because its cheaper (and i have no money) but because out of principle we should not provide more power to monopolistic conglomerates who truly dont care for artists, designers, or devs

*cough* ahem,, ranting aside,,

ive been trying to also implement some of the lorebuilding into my assets too so here is your first encounter with Endo-Tec, a pharmaceutical and transhumanist company which serves as one of the game world's major monopolies

Endo-Tec describes itself as being "The Frontier on Living Forever" with a vested interest in developing biohacking, cybernetics, gene splicing, and immunomodulation - through this Endo-Tec believes humanity can transition to a post-humanist world, bringing harmony and an end to all disease

lastly i also created an original ambient piece i quickly threw together using audacity (also FOSS) - i took several foley sounds and layered them ontop of eachother, mainly metalic sounds combined with wind whistling and the sound of my tumble dryer, and then used various effects to add depth and change the sounds from the original samples used, creating a unique, scifi "waiting at a transport station" vibe

i hope to continue to make more assets and showcase them on my website - ill probably not make a blog post about every set of assets i make simply because that would be a LOT of blogs, but ill likely make a gallery page for hosting my works in future

well thats about it for today's blog, i hope u enjoyed and ill be sure to update my site with more information about my recent development projects - bai ^~,
