This is insane, your timing is always so tight and punchy, love it
It is just camera shake and motion blur
The watermark can be affected by the Unreal post-process because it is actually placed in the level as a decal actor.
I’m glad that the fierce and lively action of Wind Force seems to have been well presented
I recently participated in Eternal Ascent 3d community challenge,
I was wondered that how far I can go during one month biggest community challenge as Real-time game vfx artist.
I chose Hellenistic Geometry as my theme. It’s about ancient mathematicians being empowered by the force of geometric entity, construct stairs on the spot, and continuing to ascent.
and I used heterogeneous volume first time, Placing static volumes in the background frame by frame worked well to construct the visuals as intended.
Your attention to detail, animation ability, and ability to create a very evocative atmosphere are always super impressive to me!
Thank you! I would like to try something new next time as well
It’s been a month since I finished Eternal Ascent, and I already working on a new sketch currently,
I’ve already mentioned this on Discord once, but I feel it’s necessary to leave it for someone’s reference on the forum as well. (And I’ll explain the rest of the techniques IF there are any special requests )
The method of transitioning the stairs has been implemented using a commonly known and simple approach.
The intended visual is to make the process of stair generation appear like a single sketch.
Thus, the stairs have been divided into three Static Mesh parts:
- Damaged aqueduct stair
- Auxiliary lines
- Constructed marble stair
The rest is simple. just need to blend the alpha of each mesh’s material.
I used SphereMask here.
As you probably know, The SphereMask node is used to determine whether a point A is inside or outside a sphere, with the center of the sphere being point B, and takes inputs for radius and hardness, returning a value between 0 and 1.
and this is… full material for stair surface, but, the overall nodes are not essential for this method.
Most of them was used to control the PBR materials of the stairs.
Here’s where the transition is directly implemented. Each sphere mask gets input values from parameters in the Material Parameter Collection, managed by keyframes in the sequencer.

I recently participated in Pwnisher’s Kinetic Rush 3D community challenge
Even though I couldn’t focus on the details this time due to a busy schedule,
but still, I felt accomplished submitting this before deadline
So many details… I wish I had your level of efficiency
ArtStation Link - WickBound Sacrament VFX
I recently participated in Korean local Game VFX competition.
the theme of this competition was ’ Fire ',
so, I started with the idea of a candle and then expanded it into sacrament, wax, and chandeliers, drawing the shape motive from these elements.
There were many parts I wanted to improve, but today was the deadline. So, I decided to wrap up the sketch at this point.
and last, The various ribbon ideas I used in this sketch started from the tutorial in the link below.
Rope Tutorial
Excellent as always. The timing is so tight
Incredible work ! Did you make all the character animations by yourself? It’s so smooth
Really cool! What settings do you use for rendering the sequencer, it looks very good.
Thank you I want to keep inspiring others
Thank you always for your kind words!
Yes, btw the Unreal mannequin already comes with proper rigging
so making it really convenient to set animation keyframes.
additionally this time, I also tested a bit of ragdoll simulation.
The console settings haven’t changed much since the ones I used during the EA and KR Challenge
here’s my console variable settings on MRQ, but I’m testing it a bit differently each time.

I recently participated in the Kitbash3D The Secrets of the Luminara challenge.
This work allowed me to gain plenty of practice with environment decoration and spline Niagara effects.
would love to see a breakdown
