Upgrading the assets for hit video game Total War: Pharaoh

and Sega, which was released last year. Our task was to upgrade some in-game assets to a higher quality for use within the game’s marketing and menu.

Over the years, I’ve used Blender more discreetly, and saw how it has evolved from software for masochistic enthusiasts into an industry benchmark. But I won’t necessarily talk about Blender now, although I’ll use it as an example. Instead, I want to talk about how the most important aspect of my work is iteration.Senior 3D character artist Mihai works for AMC Studio.

For me, it means convincing the computer to do as many of the repetitive tasks as possible. It’s not always easy, but becomes quite fun once you start speaking the machine’s language. This is where I return to Blender. This time I was lucky as the high-poly scale wasn’t decimated, although I might have found an answer in that case. On the other hand this approach, even with the help of ChatGPT, means thinking like a programmer. ChatGPT is effective if you can describe the problem algorithmically, but not everyone is familiar with that.What industry artists are familiar with are workflows and filters using layers. A layer stack similar to that in Photoshop oris just a series of nodes and filters.

At first glance, some Geometry nodes may seem complicated, especially if you didn’t make them yourself. However, once you start adding node by node everything becomes clear and, honestly, I think it can be the most enjoyable aspect. You’ll constantly start to think about accomplishing each task using nodes.Similarly for the second character, Irsu, I had to replace the highpoly model provided to us by the client.
