This asset pack contains 12 high-quality doorbells, each available in two configurations: a single combined mesh and a separated version with button and base/housing as distinct parts. Every doorbell includes two texture variants – clean and dirty – to match a wide range of environments and use cases. Designed for games (FPS, horror, etc.), architectural visualization, and other interactive experiences. Example interaction blueprint included.
It took way more time than I anticipated (overall over 100h of work so far, around half on modelling/texturing the other half on UE side and publishing). But it was also super fun project to work on.
Before tackling that project, I would never suspect that making such simple objects would be fun
Geometry is relatively simple, the most effort was in texturing
I used Blender 4.2 for the first time in production. I had quite a few issues with it. Most related to the new autosmooth behavior. I think I got the hang of it now though, but I still spent more time on this part vs what was before. Also, somehow usdc/z export was crashing Blender in 4.2 for me, so for that I used 4.4.
Other tools I used: Marmoset Toolbag 4 (still haven’t upgraded to 5) and Substance Painter 2024.
The Unreal Engine version on Fab supports 4.27+, but most renders are from 5.4 and 5.5. At one point when I was working on this pack I did a comparison of renders with the same camera setup between UE4 and UE5. I was actually surprised how better the UE5 renders are. Not only they did reflect better lighting parameters (like temperature), but also were just crisper/more clear.
At one point I needed tillable concrete material for wall. I made one in SP, which is not the standard way of doing those, but I’m quite satisfied with the result. The wall in UE renders (and in video) is using that material.
I used RD Lighting Kit for UE. It did save me a lot of time on making the renders look good!
The blueprints I added were relatively simple, but I felt that they needed to be documented. It wasn’t that much work to write the docs, but it wasn’t fun part of this project :stuck_out_tongue:
Aside from Fab I plan to also release them on Unity Asset Store (and probably in few other places).

On both sites you can check out more renders, but on Fab there’s also 3d preview.
