Recently i had the honor to write my first profound article for 80 Level. In the article i go into detail about the workflows and tools that i've developed for my sci-fi substances. Please visit the 80 Level website and check it out if this sounds interesting to you:

I hope you enjoy reading it and maybe ther's some good info and inspiration in there for you.
Let me know if you have any questions or if you would like to see any of the tools that i wrote about on the store.
