About Me
Nice to meet ya! I’m a 3D Character Artist who had the pleasure of working on an awesome AAA video game project alongside a team full of incredibly talented and creative people at Timbre Games, which sadly closed its doors in June 2024. So I’m currently looking for a new opportunity at the moment.
Proficient in sculpting, high-end topology, UV unwrapping and texturing of stylized humans, animals, and creatures for Animation and Video-Game pipelines.
High efficiency with complex facial calisthenics for character blendshapes, workflow documentation guides and best practices for production.
Knowledge in basic rigging, grooming, shaders, layout and animation to better communicate with teammates from various departments.
All within a production pipeline while managing, reviewing and providing feedback in-house and overseas, using communication and managing tools like Shotgrid, Favro, Ftrack, Deadline Monitor.
