💪 My Technical & Creative Process
Every project I take on receives meticulous attention to detail. My workflow is structured to fit seamlessly into standard studio pipelines or independent project workflows:
Concept Analysis: Understanding aesthetic goals, poly-count restrictions, texture requirements, or print specifications.
High-Poly Sculpting: Crafting detailed forms, hard-surface elements, or organic characters with artistic precision.
Optimization & Retopology: Creating clean, efficient edge loops designed for real-time rendering and performance.
UV Unwrapping & Texturing: Generating clean UV maps and high-detail PBR textures (Albedo, Roughness, Metallic, Normal, AO).
Print Preparation: Ensuring models are 100% watertight (manifold), properly scaled, keyed, hollowed, and split for 3D printing.
Final Delivery: Delivering organized source files in all required export formats (.FBX, .OBJ, .STL, .BLEND, .ZTL).
