After finishing up my final year in college I wanted to take some time to do something a bit different. Seeing a few different posts using Substance Designer to make weapons or shields made me want to have a go at doing it myself, with just a bit of a twist. I decided to make the same object in two different art styles as a bit of a challenge to myself.
I also wanted to do every part of this in Designer to help learn some more about it, I spent a lot of time the last year doing tileables and trim sheets, so doing something a bit more unique and detail oriented made for a nice change of pace.
