Scavenged Combat Rifle - CB-46

For this project, I focused on pushing the material fidelity of the CB-46 "Cobra Bite" through a high-detail texturing pass and an optimized UV workflow. I utilized a UDIM-based workflow to ensure consistent, high texel density across the entire asset, allowing for intricate surface details like heat-tempered metal, weathered polymer, and realistic grime buildup. My process involved a deep dive into PBR material definition within Substance 3D Painter, where I layered procedural wear with hand-painted storytelling elements—such as the field-repaired wiring and worn branding—to give the weapon a gritty, lived-in history.
