Full Timelapse of a desert environment I made from a concept I created off of Midjourney. This environment took just a little under 2 days, and i'm happy with how it turned out in that time.

More in depth look at how I layered the ground and thought process can be found here:

    This is not level design this is environment art, none the less really awesome environment.
  • @waltarron
    Wow this is not what i expected from the YouTube algorithm but it is certainly what i needed to see.

    Quixel Megascans has left the chat. Was NOT expecting sculpting stones from scratch lol
  • Very well done. my favorite thing about these videos (to some extent) is not the quality of the product, which this one is very exceptional, but observing the workflow of other environmental design artist.
  • Wow. As someone coming from motion design and flapping around at the moment with my first efforts in environment design, that was incredibly useful to see. Great workflow & design process. Thanks for sharing!

    Currently a 3D art student and level design is my passion. This was incredible to watch.
  • Its inspirational to see some twice as talented as you do something awesome. But when they are one million times as talented, thats just depressing 😅 . Awesome.
