Getting ready to call this done... this took about 3 weeks. Blender and Substance Painter mainly. This is supposed to be an off-world mining colony in the style of Bladrunner/Alien. I need to add a bit more detail to the terrain, but that can wait until my new computer arrives.  Using Real Terrain Data and SubDiv Surfaces in Blender.Nice video here on how to achieve this:

I pretty much just use this blog to remind myself of stuff... so here are a few blender things I learned and then forgot and then learned again.... Focus on an objectPretty much every other graphics package on the planet lets you zoom and center on a selected object by pressing the 'F' key. In Blender its '.' on the numeric pad. I actually like how Blender uses the numpad but I usually forget this one. Multiple Materials on an objectHandy for things like windows in a spaceship, where you want a single mesh but with different materials. It's not complex, but it's not obvious either. Follow the link for satisfaction. https://blender.stackexchange.com/questions/516/add-different-materials-to-different-parts-of-a-mesh Atmospheric AttenuationBasic fog, but also a great introduction to the Compositor. A big slice of Blender awesome that I've barely touched. I had been meaning to figure out how to do this for ages. Another one of those things that wasn't immediately trivial but actually isn't difficult and can save a lot of time. Click the world tab on the left side of the shader editor and then add the mapping node. Stolen from here: https://blender.stackexchange.com/questions/47833/how-do-i-rotate-an-environment-texture  |
