He covers the full pipeline: blocking out the puffer jacket in ZBrush, using Marvelous Designer for a clean sculpting base, retopologizing in Maya with RizomUV for UV unwrapping at ~110k triangles, and texturing in Substance 3D Painter with heavy wear-and-tear detail. The most technically demanding element was a custom procedural shader in Unreal Engine using Fresnel effects and anisotropy to achieve a satin-like sheen on the jacket, enabling color variation across scene positions. Clothing simulation using Unreal Engine's Rigid Body node proved the biggest challenge due to multi-layer interpenetration issues. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
