I did a test drive with my new City Bus through a Rainy Dutch City
(everything 3d/vfx/sound design)
tldr; Design, 3D Modeling, surfacing/texturing, vehicle rigging, animation, lighting, VFX, camera, sound design City Bus and street (including all props) in Blender as a test drive for my upcoming Animation Short Film.
I created my first own paint alpha pack for texturing of props containing 210 alphas / stencils
they are free to download and licensed under CC0

Included are various types like scratches, splatters and even burn marks.
As bonus I recorded some behind the scenes stuff from my latest fire effect production (these are not included in the pack, as they are brand new)
My Tavern interior #assetpack is slowly taking shape 
I realized what impact the Material has. Fun fact all objects in this scene have the same material that is using the same 320x320 Pixel Textures.
All the objects combined have like 5000 Vertices
I experimented a bit with atlas #texturing today. Which style do you prefer?
Classical #lowpoly (right) or textured #pixelart style (left)?
I am delighted to announce the official release of the #blender plugin #TexturesDiffusion, which I have been working on for the past few months.
Ignite your creativity and craft outstanding visuals for your short films and video games !
Available now on Gumroad and Blender Market (soon).
I can't wait to see your creations with this tool!
Exciting news on the horizon! I've been working on a new #blender plugin that's about to change the game for 3D asset #texturing with #stablediffusion #ia
Tiling textures, no matter how good, won't look that great without a lot of manual work to break the repetition.
But we can build a shader and craft some auxiliary textures that will break the repetition. This will save us a lot of manual set dressing work.
And if your GPU is having trouble, we can peel back the layers to simplify the shader and balance fidelity with performance.
The final shader/material uses 4 1K textures and a 256 texture.
