Environment Sculpting

Environment sculpting is the process of creating a high-resolution 3D model with a series of painting strokes, using. Usually the details from these models are baked into a NormalMap for a lower-resolution in-game model.


Sculpting Individual Objects

Sculpting techniques for creating individual non-tiling objects.

Bricks and Tiles

Metal

Rock and Stone

Wood

Sculpting Tilable Maps

Sculpting techniques for creating tilable normal maps and displacement maps.
