I have used Cinema 4D and Maya for over 10 years collectively, and during that time I have created many characters for children's books, video games and various other projects. Some - like the Destructonaut characters - were based off of concept art designed by others.
I began animating properly back in the early 2000's, starting with claymation before moving to flash animation and eventually animation using Maya.
Starting in 2007, I began illustrating childrens books. Of the eight I had a hand in, six of them were produced using Cinema 4D.
For as long as I can remember I have loved photography. So much so that I completed a Bachelors of Fine Arts with Honours in Photomedia after leaving high school. I bring my knowledge of lighting, true colour and photographic aesthetics to most of my 3D work, trying to make it as realistic as possible.
While experienced in various 3D programs I also have a long history of utilising 2D art programs. From the early days of Kid Pix, I quickly became familiar with Photoshop in the 90's, end eventually became proficient with Art Rage on my tablet in more recent years.
