I’ve been a long-time admirer of Ariel Perez’s aesthetic, and for this project, I wanted to bring one of his iconic concepts into a real-time environment. To ensure the character could handle complex deformations and maintain mechanical plausibility in Unreal Engine, I adapted the design to a more athletic body type. This allowed for a deeper exploration of the person beneath the helmet while keeping the spirit of the original silhouette intact.
I am currently open to new Senior 3D Character or lead artist opportunities. I’m particularly looking for roles that offer creative freedom and a chance to leverage my 15+ years of experience in high-end character pipelines. Reach out if you're looking for a veteran artist to join your squad.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
