Board Game Art in Substance Designer

Daniel Thiger is now working on his own WW2-themed board game called Day of Victory. The artist is going to release the whole thing as an app at some point, but for now, he’s just sharing some details on the production process. Daniel states that board games are what got him interested in game design in the first place.

The thing here is that artist managed to find a perfect use case for Substance Designer in creating the artwork of Day of Victory. One big component of the game is play cards, obviously. Daniel wanted them to feel worn and old so he made a card generator in SD. (which actually became the basis of my SD Fundamentals 5 tutorial).

It is also worth noting that the generator became the basis of his SD Fundamentals fifth tutorial, which you can find here.

“I’m happy with the results, it really gives them that military feeling and I got to use Substance Designer for another project. If you’re also a board gamer, follow Day of Victory on Facebook to read the development blog,” added the artist.
