im not an environment artist yet but im working towards it. im just confused on when to use megascans as i am told that environment artists are responsible for the creation of environment assets, someone mentioned that i need to show that i have the necessary skills in order to show that i am capable of delivering. however another mentions that it is unrealistic for one to expect that everything in the environment is to be made by you. therefore learning how to tweak and alter megascans is more better.
im at a loss because im not sure my tree can compete to a 3d scanned tree, which would mean that it is preferred that i use megascans however if that is the case would it even be beneficial to learn to model certain things if there is already a megascans out there that does the job with a few modifications?
sorry for asking a basic question
