https://80.lv/articles/creating-a-dreamy-cottage-with-maya-substance-3d-painter-houdini/
I recently got a chance to share my most in-depth breakdown to date about my Palia House project on 80.lv. Topics include procedural texturing, stylized modeling, foliage creation in SpeedTree, and re-lighting in Nuke. I am unable to share the whole article here, but I've included as much as I can. Check out the full article at the link above when you’ve got a chance! 👾
