I spent another day on learning Unreal Engine cloth physics. It's getting better and way more manageable. Also it looks really freaking cool. It's far from perfect and I'm still refining the look, but the prototype of the first Haunter model is getting closer. I'd like to thank all the random YouTubers who decided toContinue reading "Half-cape full"
Caping around
Tried to get my hands dirty with cloth painting in Unreal engine. It's as complicated as I imagined it to be. I went into blind and then watched videos after unsuccessful attempts. The cape is still coming out quite wonky but I'm slowly understanding how to make it work. I had not been weighing itContinue reading "Caping around"

If you're interested in learning Blender I highly recommend this series because it goes over all the basics and high level stuff as well and is very easy toContinue reading "From hat to toe"

Before I began I told myself that I should be careful not to get too aheadContinue reading "Back to Blender & Fantasy Knight v2"

In the pictures here I show how I was adding props to the model by attaching them to a specific socket. So that when it moves around theContinue reading "Skeletons are bony"

Instead I took Creative Writing as my course in college back in 2014. With the world crashing down, I also needed a better wayContinue reading "4 month catch-up"
