Harold Halibut

Video game created by @slow-bros is an adventure whose assets were originally handmade to produce a stop-motion feel to the experience:

Harold Halibut is a modern adventure game, with a strong focus on storytelling and exploration. Set in a spaceship, stuck under sea on a distant water planet, you slip into the tiny shoes of Harold. As a young janitor and lab assistant to Professor Jeanne Mareaux, one of the lead scientists on board, he tries to help out in her attempt to find a way to relaunch the ship.

All that can be seen in the game is carefully built in a real-world workshop using classic sculpting, set building and clay and puppet fabrication techniques. We’re not even buying supplemental model train trees or anything.

Our love of stop-motion films, childhood nostalgia and respect for traditional craftsmanship are some reasons for this. Patience and taking a break from an ultra-fast paced digital reality are big factors as well. 

The project has just released a kickstarter campaign which has more information, which you can find here

Got some fantastic drive by DSLR photo scanned data of the mountains surrounding the roads through Nevada and along the route to the Hoover Dam. Going to be using this as samples for Unreal Engine environment design if you're interested in seeing these listed on my sketchfab please let me know in the comments below. #nevada #hooverdam #gamedev #3dcapture #indiegamedev #photoreal #3dmodel #3d #agisoft #3dscanning #3dmodeling #zbrush #3dscan #photogrammetry #photoscan #photorealism #photography #mountains #rockface #capturingreality #rock #enviromentdesign (at Nevada)

Grabbed a ton of 3D scans on my way out of Nevada. Tons of stuff for my environment work in Unreal Engine including these rocks that were being used decoratively at a gas station. If you'd be interested in buying a copy of these on sketchfab when they're done being reworked in zbrush please let me know in the comments below ♡ #3d #3dmodeling #3dscan #3dmodel #digitalartist #gamedev #3dscanning #photogrammetry #photorealism #photoscandata #photoscan #agisoft #capturingreality #rock #rocks #3dcapture #indiegamedev #photoreal #enviromentdesign #3dassets #dslrphotography #dslr #zbrush (at Nevada)

Had an amazing time visiting the Las Vegas strip with some friends earlier this year. We took this while visiting the Pawn Stars pawn shop about 2 mi away. Took a good number of 3D scans along the Route this time! #glitch #glitchart #lasvegas #digitalart #vegas #mural #glitcheffect #photography (at Las Vegas, Nevada)

3D scan of an abandoned campfire that we later used to make our own dinner. Looking to spend about as much time capturing and reworking digital content as I spend having fun in the sun this summer. Why not do both at the same time. Admittedly photoscanning works better in overcast weather but that's a normal condition in Oregon. #oregon #gamedev #3dmodel #3dscan #3d #firewood #burnedwood #campfire #camping #photogrammetry #photorealism #photoscandata #photoscan #photography #hiking (at Tillamook Forest Center)

Working on reprocessing this completed 3D photoscan of a SOG tactical tomahawk and I'm incredibly thrilled with the realistic results I'm getting! #sog #sogtomahawk #tactical #tacticalgear #axe #hatchet #tomahawk #sogtactical #sogtacticaltomahawk #sogtacticalhawk #sogtacticalgear #gamedev #3d #photogrammetry #pointcloud #photorealism #photoscan #photography #photoscan #photoscandata #agisoft #capturingreality #3dsculpt #zbrush

3D photoscan of a military knee pad for a 3d character I'm developing! #agisoft #capturingreality #kneepads #tacticalgear #tactical #zbrush #alohasurplus #airsoft #3dmodel #3d #3dmodeling #3dscan #3dscanning #photogrammetry #photorealism #photoscandata #photoscan #photography

You can now purchase several of the models featured in my animations for your own animation and modeling workflow! Mostly reworked for Unreal engine. Most of the items currently listed are 3D scans or are derivative of 3D scan data but you can look forward to a lot of traditionally modeled content and motion capture data in the future! I'm going to try to share as much of my content as possible and to get a number of my local and international friends listing their scan work on sketchfab as well! Thank you so much for your support ♡ Look me up as "curiofawkstrawt" https://sketchfab.com/curiofawkstrawt #3d #3dmodeling #myart #3dmodel #3dscan #3dscanning #gamedev #sketchfab #zbrush #pbr #photogrammetry #photoscan #photoscandata #agisoft #capturingreality #russianparatrooperhat #donut #airsoftfacemask #parkingblocker #zomboehead #zombie #zombiemodel #skimask #firehead #budai

I might run this again from scratch because we've actually got some missed coverage on the left sleeve. Maybe I'll clone it over in zbrush. We're ramping up on the 3D photogrammetry scans again for my projects. Look forward to seeing these for sale on sketchfab soon #sketchfab #3dmodel #3dscan #3dscanning #3d #3dmodeling #myart #dslrphotography #gamedev #dslr #digitalart #combatshirt #armyclothing #3dclothing #photogrammetry #photoscan #photoscandata #indiegamedev #agisoft #pointcloud

Using a program called capturing reality to Fantastic effect to reprocess huge photo sets I took many months ago into incredibly detailed 3D models with even higher resolution textures than before. I'm dying to put these into some Unreal Engine games and animations in the next couple months is going to be dedicated into refining them into a useful state. #3dscan #3dscanning #gamedev #3d #3dmodel #3dmodeling #realitycapture #capturingreality #photogrammetry #photorealism #photography #photoscan #leveldesign #highresolution

Working on more designs for modular weapons finally takes me to the bolt action. Which I wanted to be compatible with most of the same foreends, scopes, and stocks but it is genuinely tricky to graft some of these grip types together coherently. So look forward to a few custom heavy sniper stocks and fancy thumbhole Target stock designs. I'll take these into zbrush and start on them this month. #weapondesign #photoshop #indiegamedev #weapons #rifle #boltaction #boltactionrifle #gamedevelopment #modulardesign #2ddesign #gundesign #gunart #gunconcept #conceptart #guns

What do you think of the resolution on this 3D capture? I'm going to have to start sweeping up better before my shoots. I'm dying to put these into some Unreal Engine games and animations in the next couple months is going to be dedicated into refining them into a useful state. #3dscan #3dscanning #gamedev #3d #3dmodel #3dmodeling #realitycapture #capturingreality #photogrammetry #photorealism #photography #photoscan #leveldesign #highresolution

British Army S10 Gas Mask partial photoscan. A more complete version can be seen on sketchfab at user curiofawkstrawt. Overall I was extremely pleased with how the skin came out. #3dprint #gamedev #3dmodel #3d #agisoft #3dmodeling #3dscan #3dscanning #photogrammetry #photoscan #photorealism #photography #gasmask #gasmasks #mask #s10 #s10gasmask

Put a ton of work into this scan this week. My little studio is slowly building up hardware and software upgrades that are letting me pull off wonderful levels of detail these days and store my data conveniently. I could have this up for sale in a week.

Finished my fragmentation grenade 3D scans and built a test animation. Can't wait to get this game asset into unreal engine 4. The combat knife and mask are also 3D scanned items that I created through photogrammetry and retooled in zbrush and 3ds Max. #3dscan #3dscanning #gamedev #3d #mixamo #fragmentationgrenade #zbrush #grenade #animated #animation #iclone #3danimation #photogrammetry #photoscan #characteranimation #gamedevelopment
