The release of Unreal Engine 5 is big news for ZBrush artists. The real-time demo “Lumen in the Land of Nanite” showcases the new Nanite technology which is described as “virtualized micropolygon geometry” allowing artists to include as much geometric detail as the eye can see. This means all those billions of polygons from your carefully sculpted ZBrush model can now be rendered in real time for the most life-like imagery possible! The demo from Unreal is already very impressive, but we can’t wait to see what the future of gaming and film making has in store with this powerful technology. Wa ..read more

One of the most talked about movies this year stars a fast-running blue CG hedgehog.

Sonic fans were disappointed that the film version of the video game icon not only failed to spark that early 90s nostalgia but even looked a little creepy. To Paramount’s credit, the studio decided to delay the film’s release in order to completely overhaul Sonic and give the fans what they were demanding across the internet.
