I've somehow made it too 500 followers on here. Which feels absolutely insane. To be honest I'm not really sure I deserve it, but I do appreciate anyone that's been willing to give my art a chance. Hoping to post more personal and professional work in the future!

Apparently it's been one year since I modeled the T-Gun from Borderlands 3. This is still one of my favorite personal projects, so here's another version of the model! This render was designed to look like an advertisement by Tediore. Original Concept Art by Kevin Duc

It's been a few years now, so I decided to get an updated profile picture! Figured it was time to embrace the change.

Another older project; the Sawed-Off Pump Action Shotgun! This is one of my favorite personal projects from the college days. I'd often work on this model in between classes. It was also my first serious attempt at weapon art.

When you see this post a room.

An old project, but still a favorite.

My model of Sub-Zero's mask from MK9! This was the game that first introduced me to the iconic series. So I had to try modeling my favorite mask for Sub-Zero.

My model of Scorpion's mask from MKX! This has always been my favorite mask from the series. Especially cause it's such an iconic design. It was a challenging model, but I'm still pretty proud with how it turned out.

The last piece I'm sharing from my old Forged in Fire series. Here's one of my favorite knife designs: the Kukri! This was inspired by the "signature" blade segment from the show. Always thought these knives were interesting, especially with their unique blade shape.

My next Forged in Fire piece is the Navy MK 3 Dive Knife! This one has such a cool design, and I had a lot of fun baking the high to low poly for the grip.

Over the years Forged in Fire has been a huge inspiration for me. So after binge watching the show in 2020, I decided to do a little challenge and model some of my favorite knives featured in the show. So to start off, here's my Trench Knife!

Here's a little scene that I made after playing Elden Ring! Wanted to create a diorama that felt apart of the world. So I tried to recreate a Sword Shrine where you'd summon my character to help you on your journey.

Here's another older project from my college days. This was my first attempt at something a little more stylized. It's not my strongest project, but I still enjoy looking back at this one.

Just wanted to say thanks for over 300 followers! This genuinely feels unreal to me. But I'm truly grateful for everyone that's given my art a chance. I'm blown away by the support over these past few days. It makes me really happy to be apart of a community with so many amazing artists.

My Mando helmet from a couple years ago. At the time I was feeling very inspired after watching The Mandalorian and Clone Wars series. This was also my first serious attempt at modeling armor.

Here's a vintage Pool Table I did awhile back. It was one of my first personal projects after college. Overall I'm still pretty happy with how it came out.

Here's some fanart I did for Mortal Kombat! Decided to model my two favorite masks from the series. My main inspiration for the final look was the iconic Gold Scorpion skin from MKX.

Another model from college, this time my old Lighthouse! I've always been a fan of the design of these buildings. And the concept of one alone in the ocean guiding ships to safety always resonated with me.

Decided to start sharing a few of my older pieces. So here's my Speakeasy Bar! This is by far my favorite piece from my college days. Always loved the aesthetic of these prohibition era buildings.
