I built a lot of goofy digital sets for this season which I'll talk about more in detail later when I eventually do making-of videos... but for now, here's this! π
I tried something new (a sort of digital papercraft technique) which I can explain in detail if people wanna know more, but the gist is I drew all these SHEETS of objects in Clip Studio which I imported into Blender as mesh planes and "folded" them together.
The end result isn't too different from like, game modeling--it's just the process that's kind of upside-down. π I did it like this to avoid UV unwrapping, texture painting, all the things I find mildly tedious. It's a LOT of transparent textures, but EEVEE handled it quite smoothly.
Like all my techniques, it's more grounded in how amusing it is for me to do than how efficient it is LOL... I felt like a child printing out and folding this Wario car. Anyone remember this? β¬οΈ

I loved papercraft as a kid. It was my favorite thing. I actually started work on a papercraft big top burger truck- just need to work out a few more kinks!

Please do go in depth in a future post because I also hate UV Unwrapping lol

Your workflows are genuinely genius. I really resonate with optimizing around what you love doing and avoiding stuff you hate. It truly helps work actually get done when you're having a blast, and this is the perfect example!
