Description
This tutorial series takes a complete look at modeling and unwrapping a hard-surface prop, starting with creating a high poly of this bomb-case asset. Then, we'll make the low poly using quick modifier stack shortcuts, discuss UV unwrapping, and explain the important relationship between Normal maps, UVs, and Smoothing groups. About the Instructor: Alec Moody has been working in the game industry since 2003 and has contributed to numerous titles as a freelance artist. He holds a B.F.A. in photography from the Savannah College of Art and Design and Co-owns Handplane 3d LLC.
