Projects

• "A Night's Rest" a Kenshi fan projectA fan project that I did after playing a game called "Kenshi" by LO-FI GAMES. Some of the props presented a challenge as I have not done organic characters or clothing before. The pillow was simulated in Blender, the blanket and the sheet in Maya, using nCloth. Highpoly Character modelling - ZBrush Modeling & Lighting - Autodesk Maya 2018 Texturing & Baking - Substance Painter Rendering - Redshift Compositing - Nuke
• Detective AgencyA personal project with an emphasis on realistic models, textures and lighting. Decided to go with a detective agency theme, to maintain a good range of materials for modeling and texturing. The curtains were simulated in Blender. Modeling - Autodesk Maya 2018 Texturing - Substance Painter Rendering and Lighting - Redshift Compositing - Nuke
• "Flooded City""Flooded City" is a project for the department of Visual Arts at the University of the Fraser Valley in Canada, which I have been actively working on from January until March of 2019. The project is a part of the debate about the future of Homo Sapiens. The model occupies a 42x42 cm board and is built at a 1:2400 scale.
