Making Mobile Game Assets - Atlas Empires - Ultimate Outpost
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 бер 2021
- In this video I show you how I made the Spell Lab for the game Atlas Empires in a classic hand painted stylized way. Much like Clash of Clans or World of Warcraft. These techniques are really important for mobile games in general. check out my other play lists on hand painted techniques below with tutorials and guides.

You are not only a talented artist but a talented instructor, and I cannot tell you how much your videos have helped a lot of us. Thank you!
Honestly, the best intructor i've seen on youtube. Next to Brackeys. Keep up the good work
Hand painted and stylized will always remain. Because it's a way to make unique art. Hyper realism all looks the same, or strives to look the same as reality. It's also a requirement to work in large teams creating assets. I also do hope there is some developer that picks up the work on the paint mode.
Photobashing is alot easier than handpainted/stylized. And cheaper to do.
I really enjoy your models. There's so much character and detail to them.
I also notice you've grown much more comfortable with making videos and speaking about your process.
This turned out gorgeous!
Always love your videos and tutorials, I learn so much from them. So a big thank you!
And I'm a huge fan of the painterly style, I hope it never goes out of fashion 😊
This inspires me to try some stylized texture painting. I usually dislike stylized game art because it can be soo exaggerated and too colorful. Thanks for showing us a more mild and cozy look. =]
Awesome work! It looks so easy and with a natural flow when a master craftsman is creating. Would love to see a course that covers the whole creation process of an item like this that mixes sculpting, box modelling and painting.
You have a good narrative voice as well that dots the i for the whole experience.
Fantastic video, congratulation you are a great artist, I have learned a lot thanks to all your videos.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Great video. The model is beautiful.
Thank you!
Always like your work and you seem like a very good person
Thank you for your content
Regarding realistic vs hand painted: I'll always prefer hand painted for games. When I play a game, I want to escape real world and realism for a while
I know hand painting is kinda popular due to it be performant on mobile, but I think it'll be around for a long time. The problem with realistic look in games is after awhile the games would all look the same and have no real personal touch or style. That's why I think stylized art in general won't go away. It's a way to stand out from the crowd.
great work love it!
Great job with this one! Looks awesome I think :)
yes sir i will stuck out at last in every singel video of yours and this was as useful as your other videos thank you sir
cool :)
Interesting video. Loving it. 💝
I happen to have liked the symbol. Looked like a cool fantasy axe head.
Fantastic ❤️
Remarkable... I really wish I knew where to start with hand-painting textures like this.
see my playlist :)
Superb 👍
awesome
You're getting better)
I would have loved to see the tutorial on this one! I did a project not too long ago and could not figure out how to do my roof so i gave up. this would have been perfect!
I vastly prefer colorful, fantasy hand painted game graphics, rather than realistic shaders. I think an awesome balance is "Heroes of the Storm". Love their style and it feels timeless.
The fact that this took you 10 hours shows there's no replacement for hard work. It's great that you can take constructive criticism so well. I think I would struggle with that. I totally made it to the end of your video. Once I finish my current game project I'm going to go back through some of your modeling tutorials. I also bought your drawing tutorial and am working through that in my spare time. Thanks!
🙂👍
i like this low poly stuff alot.
Nice
Are you going to teach us how to scult those stones? They look amayzing!
Nice video as always. How do you put the back the blue image in the background of the animation?
Before u render ur animation put it in transparente background and render
How u can do it go and scratch cuz Idk how to explain
yes htat's correct put background to transparent and make one in photoshop
@@grabbitt Thanks a lot to both
Hi Grant... Was hoping to get a bit of info on the grass technique for this. I love the short clumpiness and color variation. Well, I like the colors of your work in general your experience really shines there. Is the grass done with the hair mod stuck to a plane still? I'm assuming with a gradient texture to get variation? Or a clump populate on a vert select? Can't pin it down but looks awesome from here... Thanks for sharing...
Yeah I'll do that soon
@@grabbitt Cool, respect you are busy with your other stuff. Thanks for the reply.
Handpainted is very cool, but it feels that it's dying out because programs like Substance Painter can produce an approximation. So far have not reached it yet I think, but it could provide a basis. I was just learned a little bit of it yesterday, like how to bake high poly details onto a low poly object, and how add a quick 3 layered stylized texture to it. It was fun and not that hard to make. Here was the end result I had: i.imgur.com/8OyUFah.png On this picture the tree trunk is very low poly, basically a tube, and all the details are baked onto with Painter. Although I don't think it's perfect this all think was like 30 min of effort maybe? and then you can import it back to wherever you want and finish from there.
Handpainting is both hard and easy at the same time. Easy since you don't need to think about various PBR maps, or how to use a tool that's quite expensive to get and learn, but it's also hard at the same time since as you mentioned painting takes absolute ages.. Last time I did a handpainted set, made a bandit camp, with various buildings and assets like a blacksmith and tents and food items, and I sort of gave up on life after finished them all :D I think a whole weekend was spent jus to model and paint them up all. This was the endresult i.imgur.com/p7bMSRS.jpg i.imgur.com/sttkMar.jpg I mean I like where this was going, but maan if it was killing time with a nuke.. :D
yeah its true although you have to spend longer on the sculpt to get a high poly model for substance so its still kind of working out the same at the moment but I like the ability to adapt it a lot in blender. Nice work by the way :)
@@grabbitt Thank you! :-)
great work and interesting to see. Are you willing to say how much they paid you for such a creation? Must cost a ton to develop a game. Even a little mobile game like this.
Hey grant how did you bake the color information for shading of the rocks?
See my fantasy Island tutorial
@@grabbitt okay tx for the help =)
Grant, what would you have to do with the compositor if you only wanted the image to be rendered out in stark black and white or greyscale after you already colored and textured it?
Don't know not done that but there's probably a colour node that you can take out the saturation. Then maybe some kind of colour ramp
Do you think Blenders Paint tools and workflow will be updated anytime soon so its get more easier like Substance Painter?
I really hope so
would you consider showing us how to make medievil shop signs please (with text)
Hi Grant! Can you please make a full video about texture atlas in Blender for us? How many element texture atlas can really have, the size we can use for mobile game, having good color, margin between UV island, so and so. Thanks
i think i have something similar in the hand drawn playlist in the description. Let me know if i've not covered it and i can add to it
@@grabbitt OK, I will watch it. Thanks!
Can you do a review of a graphics tablet which doesn't have a display
i have many see my kit playlists
The Gaomon s620 is pretty nice and very cheap. It makes a world of difference when drawing.
what about Huion Kamvas Pro 13 it is also pretty cheap
I have a doubt, you build the windows with a n gon, is this work flow normal? It's not necessary to use quads every time? sorry for my bad english!
I thanks for all of your content!
See my video on quads, Tris and n gons
I always wonder that for mobile games (if you're allowed to say of course) but what's the tri count they ask for each model? And how many tris was this one?
You can see the tris in the bottom right.
@@Yurup Ohh I'm so used to stats being top left for me that I didn't even think of looking there! Thanks :)
yeah its much less strict when it comes to tris than it is for texture sizes.
What size should the texture for a mobile game asset be? And what poly count should the object have? Just to get a general idea
Varies a lot depending on platform
For example for a unity game for android?
@csthll it depends on how many objects you are going to see at once on screen. You can probably get away with 1k textures on 500 faced models as a very general rule
alright thank you!
Hello, I am still learning tips and tricks for blender, can somebody give me a hand?, in the minute 4:21 that gradation of color (blue, ligt blue) represents distortion in the uv coords right? how can I enable that in blender, I don't seem to find the answer :(, by the way, I'm using the same version as shown in the video
It's UV stretch on the view options
can u make a course on hand painted texture painting in blender
I have done see my playlists
hmm, do you paid by atlas empire to make game assets?
Yes
do devs like u showing this?
yes they encourage it :)
Time for you to make your NFT millions
Haha yeah
Please show how to make grass
