Here’s a trick to add some extra flavor to your VFX trails! Comparing the two, the bottom one probably feels more organic with the speed ramp, giving it more energy. You can add this within seconds with the help of Powers - yep, that math thing 🧵(1/5) #realtimeVFX #gamedev

Stylized Electricity Breakdown ⚡ By using vertex colors, you can animate meshes like a "3D flipbook," giving you precise control over trail behavior. This technique is both flexible and saves performance, perfect for stylized effects. #realtimevfx #UE5 #VFX #gamedev

Been working on something I'm really excited about, this a vid from a week ago

I am incredibly proud to announce that my piece has been chosen as runner-up in the 2024 World of Warcraft Student Art Contest, for the "Environment" category! I owe everything to everyone who supported me along the process of making this, and I can't wait to keep learning!

#painting #vfx #2dvfx #vfxfriday #Tips #gamedev Some personally summarized vfx painting tips I hope this helps you a little.

@sovarish It was really fun watching it change for the first time. I think my favorite result is after the first warp

@studio_Smeli Super awesome! I think this also works as a great example of breaking down shapes into their basic forms for stylization. Every stage of this breakdown can fit different kinds of art direction very well.

Made a campfire and used substance designer to make the texture sheet. Put together a mini vid on how I broke it down.

We started pre production and when i go to look for reference SO much of it is AI. I typed Interior Hogwarts castle into google and got really bad AI images. This is a real thing I am referencing why is fake shit mixed in

followed this video, 1MAFX has really good vids youtu.be/0s0Oqol7SPg?si…
