3D Environment & Character Artist | Blender, Unreal Engine, Unity
I'm a 3D environment and character artist with 5 years in game art and 70+ jobs on Upwork. I do 3D modeling and texturing for game-ready, low-poly and stylized assets in Blender for Unreal Engine 5 and Unity, including mobile games. Studio work at Lobah, Funsol Technologies and Metarc. Recent work: • NYC subway interior modular kit for UE5: 19 game-ready pieces, ~40k tris, 3 × 2K trim sheets • UV editing and texturing of 800+ low-poly models for a Dubai and Sharjah city environment • Game-ready characters for a co-op metaverse game in Unreal Engine • Low-poly metaverse characters kept under 8k polys Environments: I build modular kits with trim sheets, decals and texture atlases, and set them up in Unreal Engine (UE4 or UE5) or Unity. I also do scene setup and cinematics in Unreal. Props and characters: I sculpt in ZBrush or Blender, then do retopology, UVs, high-to-low poly baking and texturing in Substance Painter. For mobile games I work to tight poly budgets with LODs and texture atlases. 3D printing: I have sculpted stylized characters and toys and prepared them as STL files for printing. Studio roles: 3D Artist at Lobah, Senior 3D Artist at Funsol Technologies and Geomon Studios, Senior Art Director at Metarc. Tools: Blender, ZBrush, Substance Painter, 3ds Max, Marvelous Designer, Unreal Engine 5, Unity How I work: send me your concept art or references, target platform and poly budget. I'll reply with a plan, timeline and price, share progress at each stage, and deliver FBX, GLB or STL files that drop straight into your project.
