Magnum Opus

I designed the central piece of the game, the metal-cast medallion, based on the specifications I received and my own concept art. I utilized 3D sculpting and printing technologies, along with my traditional art and molding skills. Additionally, I designed the back of the cards and the token illustrations to match the medallion.

PLANET OF THE APES - THE MINIATURES BOARDGAME

I created all the miniatures, including the apes and soldiers, for this game, as well as many of the 2D graphics. The project is still in production and is expected to hit shelves in June 2025. All the characters were designed based on my observations from repeatedly binge-watching the movies, as well as the references provided to me by 20th Century Fox. The turntables created by Weta Digital were especially helpful in supporting my 3D conception and adaptation of the film characters into small tabletop game pieces.

I have a strong affinity for buggy cars, so I created this buggy from scratch using various reference pictures of this type of vehicle. I used Blender for all the polygon modeling and UV mapping processes, and I utilized Substance 3D for baking the input maps and texturing. Additionally, I used ZBrush to sculpt parts with higher levels of detail to incorporate into the normal map. I created the number plate graphics in Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. I also experimented with some HDR environment maps and performed 3D rendering using Iray. My goal was to replicate the sparkling blue paint of the reference cars I used.

Mario is definitely one of my lifelong favorite characters, and I'm excited to present my work on him here. This includes high-definition sculpting and low-definition retopology using ZBrush. The blue and orange version shown is the HD model exported from ZBrush, which I rendered in KeyShot. The low-definition retopology is presented here as the final rendering, textured in Substance 3D and rendered in Iray.

Flash Light 1950

Here is a flashlight I created from scratch, based on the reference picture shown at the bottom of this page. I enjoy creating low-poly assets and making them look realistic in terms of shape, texture, and overall appearance. I wanted to explore some techniques in Substance 3D, such as the anchor point functions and others. I designed the seahorse graphic and used it in the height channel to stay close to the reference while creating a different logo. For all the modeling, I primarily used ZBrush, specifically the ZModeler brush, along with Substance 3D.

Star Wars Super Teams

Sonic Super Teams

I created all the miniatures for this Sonic tabletop game, released in Europe, using 3D sculpting and printing technologies, combined with my traditional art and molding skills. I also completed the retopology of the meshes for these 8 characters and handled the texturing to support the teaser.

I designed and created this figurine, along with all its accessories, using Maxon One and Substance 3D. Inspired by the World of Warcraft universe and its creatures, I aimed to create a 1/6 scale 3D-printed character of an Orc. Approaching morphology is always a significant challenge. I enjoy working on both stylized characters and props as well as more semi-realistic and detail-oriented projects, like this one I’ve just completed.

I'm happy to share this 3D asset I created in ZBrush and Substance 3D. Once again, I chose an object to teach my students some hard surface techniques and procedural texturing. Here is the final visual version of the related course, rendered in Iray and Marmoset Toolbag. During my classes, I demonstrate the entire process using a video projector, and for online teaching, everything I explain is directly visible through screen sharing.

Blue Moon Cristal

I created this crystal while working for Studio XP, a school focused on video game development for students aged 8 to 20. My role involved creating several chapters to update the online class content for the school, and this crystal was one of the courses I developed. Studio XP uses free and open-source software such as Blender, Krita, and Unity. After completing my assignment for Studio XP, I decided to refine the crystal further and develop an entirely new course using Unreal Engine 5 instead of Unity, aiming to incorporate some impressive UE techniques to teach the students.

I created this gramophone using Houdini SideFX, as I wanted to explore Houdini's techniques for low poly modeling with nodes, in contrast to the 3D polygon modeling in Blender or Maya that I typically use. This was during my time learning procedural techniques in Houdini. I then proceeded with unwrapping the UVs, also in Houdini, and used Substance 3D for baking the input maps, such as normal maps, curvature, ambient occlusion, etc., and for texturing. Finally, I utilized Marmoset Toolbag for real-time rendering and MViewer, which I should embed here, as well as Adobe Premiere Pro for the Ken Burns presentation and turntable. I chose the delightful "Petite Fleur" music by the soloist and composer Sidney Bechet.
