Projects
  • BLM Commission | Speech
    BLM Commission | SpeechI was asked to create a piece that depicts the general outrage and I chose to create one based on John Boyega's speech. Full of emotion, and the devotion for change. This is also the last of the charity commissions that I have been working on so thank you to everyone that contributed, your donations went to help The Black Curriculum, an organisation focusing of providing educational resources and addressing the lack of Black British history in the UK curriculum. And remember: This is not just a
  • BLM Charity Commissions
    BLM Charity CommissionsIn support of #blacklivesmatter, I did a series of charity commissions over the past weeks. I was able to raise about $250/£200 in donations and sent the money to an organisation called The Black Curriculum which focuses on bettering and educating children across the UK about black history. Those that commissioned me contributed at least $20 each for these portraits, and I'm proud of the support of my friends for the community.
  • TWICE Commissions
    TWICE CommissionsA set of commissions of kpop artists of the well-known girl group, TWICE.
  • Animated Short
    Animated ShortFor my character animation module, I created this animated short using Autodesk Maya and various models/rigs found for free online (full list of works used in the video's description). This project was tedious but after familiarizing myself with the software I was able to create this final animation. The short itself is about a student's inevitable defeat after working with a program that crashes, a relatable moment for anyone that has worked in this field of work.
  • Cinnamon Bun Sculpt
    Cinnamon Bun SculptWhat started off as a character concept sketch eventually became a 3D model for one of my university modules. The character's appearance was inspired by cinnamon and rabbits, hence her name Cinnamon Bun. The sketches were done on Paint Tool SAI, and the model was created using ZBrush, Maya, Substance Painter and rendered on Unreal Engine 4.
  • Concept Designs
    Concept DesignsHere is another university project, but on concept designs for a creature, a set of props and an environment. Here I have various images showing progress for the creature design specifically: Material studies, colour palettes, design iterations as well as silhouettes.
