Pick up essential advice as Tom Deerberg, Principal 3D Environment Artist, joins host Roman Perezogin, Junior Evangelist, to discuss environment art and design.

In this episode, Roman walks you through the process of creating an island with different areas, starting from a blank level. First, Roman uses the Terrain Editor to generate and manipulate terrain to create the size, shape, and form of an island. Roman then shows you how to use layers to create different biomes with the Terrain Editor. Youll also learn how to use the Vegetation Editor to create meshes, set the density and distribution of your vegetation, and even regulate how the grass will sway in the wind. By the end of the tutorial, you will have created an entire island with distinct and charming diversity, from the beach to the forest and the mountains, using workflows and principles that you can apply to more complex projects.
