About me

I specialize in realistic character art, human likeness and digital sculpting for AAA games, cinematics and other high-end productions.

My work covers the full character process — from anatomy, sculpting and likeness to facial expressions, clothing, skin, eyes, hands, texturing, shading, deformation and real-time implementation.

A particular focus is human likeness. I can reconstruct recognizable 3D characters from scans when available, but also from photographs, including old, low-resolution or incomplete references when scanning is not possible. This experience extends from game characters and digital humans to cinematic and physical reproduction.

Years of production experience have taught me to look beyond the sculpt itself. A character has to work in the final product — deform correctly, express emotion, respond to lighting, maintain visual quality after optimization and integrate into the technical pipeline.

I also work on real-time facial systems, realistic eyes, skin and hand deformation, helping bridge the gap between high-quality character art and convincing in-engine results.
