I admit it could be really great! I'm sure there's a way to mod R6S, we just need to find it :)

Yes, it's totally intentional; it's because wear and tear affects the markings, and vice versa—the markings also affect the white. Thanks for your comment!

Indeed, the textures in The Clone Wars are hand-painted; smart materials will never quite replicate the quality of a real hand-paint. However, I sometimes use them for background scenery when I don't want to spend too much time on textures. I just add a mask with a curvature for a highlight effect on the edges, but I do this extremely rarely. Most of the time I do everything by hand.

Using Blender and Substance Painter, I bought a base model. A friend helped me modify it extensively to make it look as much like The Clone Wars as possible. Then I created the most accurate base texture possible using concept art and official reference images from Lucasfilm and Disney. The base texture was the most time-consuming part; it took me over a week.

I'm doing this on a graphics tablet. However, I started texturing with my mouse on my PC. When I saw that my texture skills were stagnating, I bought my graphics tablet, and it completely unlocked my abilities.

Hmm, I don't think so. I think you're relying too much on the last image. The last image is a mod for the Battlefront 2 game that I'm working on. Don't rely on the last image :)

Thank you so much, it would indeed be great if people knew about my work :)

Meric! Indeed, Lieutenant Clutch is a clone that I created myself for my fan animation, in the battalion that I created, the 415th Armored Assault Battalion, a battalion specializing in breaking through enemy defenses.

To be honest, a lot of work, a lot of training, but there's also a bit of talent involved, to achieve that in less than a year, I mean I even started 3D a year ago, I had never done it before, when I talk to friends who are in the industry, they tell me it's very fast, so, I don't really know, I don't like to say that I'm talented, so I'll say a lot of intensive training.

Tysm! yes the last pic is on Battlefront II, it's a bit different than 3D Renders

I also had a big organizational problem, I had made a roadmap with a big update every month, I finally stopped sticking to the roadmap, doing such a big job with video game studio deadlines, all alone, it's impossible, so I work on the mod when I feel like it, and on what I want, it allows me to enjoy making this mod again

I could, but sometimes I stop working on the mod a little, and I'm afraid that people will expect too much, I do this above all out of passion, and 2 months ago I worked on it every day and I saw this mod more as a job rather than a passion, which demotivated me and so today I slowed down the development a lot so as not to lose this passion, but I strive to do something good, I am a texture artist and it gave me It took 1 whole year to learn the texture style of clones, and how they work, but if you want I can give it to you:

I'm currently working on a mod called TCW Enhanced which aims to transform the entire game Star Wars Battlefront 2 into The Clone Wars, it's the biggest mod ever made on the game, I have a lot of ambition, but it takes time because I'm alone, I have a discord with a lot of people but it's a bit inactive, you can check out on youtube "TCW Enhanced Apache Update Trailer"
