VR Archology is a educational Unreal VR game made for the Meta Quest 2 VR headsets.
After my first year working as a 3D artist for my game studio, they give me the awesome opportunity to switch over into a more technical role. I was officially my game studio’s first Technical Artist and they had many interesting new tasks in store for me. Considering that I never worked as a technical artist before this was both exciting and intimidating but I was hungry to learn more about technical art. So far I was able to learn more about Unreal’s shaders, Niagara systems, VDBs and much more!

This is my first Tech Artist tool for Blender. I wanted to create a tool to streamline the process of creating cartoon eyes for my characters. I often make characters that can’t use normal spheres for eyes because of their head shapes. After learning an efficient method for making cartoony eyes, I decided to build this tool so I could combine several steps into one button. I plan to add more features, like additional controls for eye color, style and maybe even a quick rig for animation.

This was a team project for my game development class. We worked on a horror game concept in a PSX style. The Game concept was called wide asleep and it’s about a young lady that gets her senses stolen. She must solve puzzles while avoiding enemies in order to receive her senses back. I was their 3D artist and Animation that worked on the character model.
