Texture/Material Artist

I am very passionate about the ways that texturing helps to tell a story. The small details on the models can really tell you a lot about the character and the world. I am always blown away by the textures in movies and games.The following pieces are my strongest texturing pieces that I helped bring life into.

In a student film I was one of the texture artists in charge of the boss-bot. The model was provided to me by one of the 3D Artist on the film Nick Golden https://www.artstation.com/nickgolden 

Programs Used: Substance Painter, Marmoset Toolbag 3

These two hench-bots are part of the same student film. The model was provided to me by the same 3D Artist who created the boss-bot. Nick Golden https://www.artstation.com/nickgolden

This project was the first time used Unreal Engine 4. Learning a new program and how to texture and light was a difficult but exciting challenge. I tried to create a simple scene with the trolley with realistic textures.

Wooden train tracks base.

For this project the focus was on subsurface scattering, showing how the material chosen would looking in a decayed state. I chose different types of fruit, since the model isn't complex which means the textures would really be the focus.
