Summary
As an experienced Lead 3D Artist, I have extensive knowledge and skills in creating 3D models for both mobile and PC games. My skills include the use of advanced software such as Zbrush, Autodesk 3Ds Max, and Blender for modeling, as well as Substance Painter and Adobe Photoshop for texturing. In addition, I use Marmoset Toolbag, and Keyshot for rendering, and often use supplementary applications such as UV Layout, Unfold3D (RizomUV), and Marvelous Designer to further enhance the quality of my work. For the setup of my 3D models, I use Unreal Engine and Unity game engines in my pipeline. For hairstyles I use FiberShop.
My passion for education and development also motivates me to participate in educational activities to stay abreast of the latest industry trends and software updates. I also have experience using PTC Creo to create CAD models, which adds to my versatility as a skilled 3D artist.
