Just like that, we’ve hit the halfway point into 2022. Reflect on another month of incredible user work with 5 stellar projects from May.
Adam Philips – “The Dashkin: trailer 1”
We’ve loved the previous shorts set in Adam Philips’s Brackenwood universe so this preview of a passion project 3 years in the making has us on the edge of our seats. See another strikingly imaginative world unfold before you in Arnaud Claudet’s “Aorta Valley”.
Cory Billett – “Owl Garden – UE5”
We can’t stop admiring the vibrant blooms in Cory Billett’s compact “Owl Garden”. Face the challenge of modeling your own flowers with tips from Anthony Fylladitis.
主业保洁，副业CG打杂 (The main business is cleaning, and the side business is CG.) – “Summer Nights”
Based on a painting by Wang Kewei, this stunning composition has us looking forward to the balmy summer nights ahead of us. Guide the viewer’s eye across your next piece with advice from our interview with environment artist Artem Ostapchuk.
Mohamed Hadiri – “Minshan Grove”
Maybe it’s the swirl of the windmill, the gentle zoom of the camera, or the way the foliage of the landscape rests in layers behind the perspective of the camera, but there’s something mesmerizing about Mahamed Hadiri’s, “Minshan Grove”. For more imaginative landscapes, consider reading our interview with concept artist Finnian MacManus.
Alice Le Coguic – “Teapot House”
Enjoy a spot of tea in the enchantingly cute scene of Alice Le Coguic, based on concept art by Inès “Ourka” Rotzinger. If you’re working up the courage to build a stylized environment but aren’t sure where to start, you can read about how Florian Elie built his.
Start your next scene with assets inspired by May’s top 5.
Colorado Blue Spruce
(Cinema)
While not as stylized as those found in Adam Philips’ “Dashkin” trailer, the Colorado blue spruce is no stranger to mountainous landscapes like those featured in Brackenwood.
Peppermint Willow
(Games)
While native to Australia, the cascading branches of the trees on the left and right edges of “Summer Nights” reminds us of our peppermint willow.
