The Works

Starting with 2D

2D art has been my drive for some time mainly in cartoon/anime style art. Personally I've explored line of action, shading and human anatomy etc.

Raster based artworks, these are game assets and the user interface for a mobile game targeting towards the general public, primarily kids.

Softwares used:

Going for a clean design and the process, a mixture of raster and vector works. Showcasing the user interface for another game on mobile aim towards kids. 3D assets from the game were also used creating the game's icon.

Softwares used:

Raster based drawing style graphics. These user interface graphics was rolled out for a mobile game, again, geared towards kids.

Softwares used:

These raster based artworks are character sprites used for creating subtle 2D animations or avatars for the in-game characters. These works shown are for multiple mobile games whose target audience are primarily kids.

Softwares used:

Photo editing works (for the most part) to create the user interface graphics for yet another game for mobile. A spot-the-difference type of game, focusing more towards kids but the game was made with a broader audience in mind.

Softwares used:

Heavily leaning towards vector graphics, these assets were created for educational/training purposes, e-learning modules. In charged of not only creating assets but also designing the modules in Storyline. The target audience for these modules are for in-house training.

Softwares used:

Fun fact,

In my early years I was not a fan of drawing humans nor coloring.

Anyways,

when it came to work here’s what I’m able to muster (but not limited to):

  • Texturing (for 3D)
  • Icons or logos
  • GUIs

Onwards, to 3D

Specializing in 3D, experienced the complete process. From modeling, texturing and rigging. Mainly low-poly on modeling as our target was for mobile devices ... before gaming phones was a thing. But I've done game rigs for high-poly characters, that was geared towards console/desktop.

Various 3D, low-poly models consisting of props as well as environments, made for mobile games. The textures were digitally painted rather than photo edited.

Softwares used:

These characters are low-poly models, built for mobile. They are also rigged meeting gaming and mobile requirements when it comes to animating.

Softwares used:

I've done rigging works on characters other than humans. Going for low-poly modeling, built for gaming on mobile.

Softwares used:

Fun fact,

I studied rigging through reverse engineering, at work (albeit during free time). It was a solo endeavor (no mentorship) out of my own curiosity.

Showtime

Sit back and relax, here's my (only 2 minutes) rigging reel, showcasing what talented animators could accomplish with'em.

Today ...

Now we’re all caught up, nothing else for me to elaborate on ... owh yea forgot to mention the most recent skill I’ve picked up, coding, Python primarily. I’ve great interest with documenting data such as keeping it clean and organized, so I tried data analysis and I am liking it. Perhaps one day will dive into the world of data science.

I started diving into technical works, at first was due to achieving what was needed of my work. But later, it was more towards streamlining a process and automate as much as possible. Funny enough, as with this website, due to technical limitations provided to free based web services, I've decided create this site from scratch.

Softwares used:

The first time I explored coding was during my time at Streamline. There I ventured into rigging, via coding. Coding became quite a necessity as at one point I was given several tasks to clean up data related to the server migration my employer was undergoing. The process heavily involves works carried out in Excel.

Softwares used:

Fun fact,

This portfolio was done from scratch with assistance from AI of course. But nothing was entirely copy-pasted, nor made by just a single click.
