3D Anime - Hair Strand Curve PRESETS!!
OK, so I wont be officially releasing this video until we close the "Time Management" series in about two weeks. But, because I don't want to interrupt the unreal series with random videos about new items I put on the shop, right after we close the "Time Management series", I'll take a day or two to talk about the new tools I'm releasing on Art Station - For the longest...
Important Announcement -
Hey Squad, Just wanted to give you guys an update on some big things that have been going on - 1st: There's been a bunch of things going in the background, but one of that has been taking so much of my time, is finding a super fast optimal way to set up objects from Blender to be texture ID'd rapidly so they can be painted on quickly in Substance Painter before exporting to Unreal - I'...

March OBJECTIVES -
Alright, so this month I have 2 PRIMARY objectives, the first is to finish everything regarding getting our new 3D character into Unreal - The second, is starting the Unreal Series by the end of the month. Once we get to Unreal, we'll essentially be back in "mega-hardcore" mode again and I'll be learning the software as fast as I can, and documenting everything I find and learn in ...
February REPORT -
Alright - So, video-wise it was a fairly quiet month, however, behind YouTube, I've been furiously sculpting/UV/Texturing the new character as fast as possible, and now we're nearing completion, so I can't wait to show you guys when it's finally done!!! I'll do a few more videos of this series until the character is done and ready for Unreal, but I'll talk more about that i...

Sword Hilt Design POLL!
OK, I've been flip flopping between two different variations for the sword hilt, I can't really decide, so I'm gonna leave it up to you guys here, which version do you guys like more. The hilt tilted Up towards the blade (Traditional), or reverse tilted down towards the handle (Kool)Image Design Link: https://ibb.co/Qd5kFWXAs usual, EXTRA points if you explain why you like one over the...

New Series INTRODUCTION -
Alright, I'm still working on finishing the new Unreal character, but here is what we are going to talk about in the meanwhile -
Military Knight - Sculpting Complete!
Big thanks to everyone for taking part in the poll! It was the closest 50/50 vote ratio I think we've ever had here on the Squad, and many of you had some very insightful reasoning for voting one way or the other - It looks like the "long" voters have barely one out, but I'll probably export both to Unreal just to see how different it affects the game-play, for now though, I'll...
Design Poll!
Alright! I'm almost done sculpting the mesh for the new Unreal Character - I've been tinkering with different variations of the design, and one of them is which one do you guys prefer? Long or short cape? As always, Bonus points for explaining why - Image Preview Link: https://ibb.co/3TSBH0W
Announcemnt-Tactical Knight (70% Complete)
OK, so, it's taken a little longer to complete this character than I originally anticipated, but we don't create new characters like this very often, so I wanna make sure it's cool and high quality - Here are some screenshots at what we have so far, and here is a list of what there is left to do:x-Glove Detailsx-Remove Back Skirt Detailx-groin shrinkx-4arm armorx-4arm bladex-elbow pad ...
February - Mission OBJECTIVES!
OK, So, I'm still in the process of finishing the Tactical Knight character that we're gonna be bringing to life in Unreal. However, the most difficult parts of the design are more or less "there" lol - It's really just a matter of putting everything together cleanly and with pretty topology without having a mess during rigging and animation.While that is happening in the backg...
January Report!
Alright, so there's actually quite a bit outside of this list that we've also accomplished in regards to the new Character Design that we'll be using when we get to Unreal, however, I'll go into more detail about that in the next few days - This ChatGPT series was pretty short and sweet, and I think we'll probably stick to this kind of short approach for new software that come ...

I'm going to use this time to get everything in order so that when we drop into Unreal engine, we have everything we need to immediately start building a fun new world and system that will look cool for 3D animation - There are a number of awesome new too...

Alright - So, we had one hell of a ride back there, but overall, I'm pretty happy with how everything turned out - This is probably one of the most objectively useful and professionally viable series I think I've ever made!
