Freelance - Digital Sculptor | Modeler | Character Artist

Wiesbaden, Germany
I am a freelance artist, specialized in digital sculpting and 3D modeling.

I am experienced in working with clients from different countries all over the world. I have a broad range of skills in sculpting, 3D modeling, texturing and rendering.

I create and design 3D models for a broad scope of requirements. These can be 3d printable toys or miniatures as well as highly detailed renderings of portraits and characters. Other clients have specific needs for advertising, marketing and product visualisations ranging from stunning Keyshot renders to product shots for augmented reality.

To name a few examples of products I could assist you with:

- realistic and animation characters
- Miniatures
- 3D printable scultptures and figurines
- complex geometry like embellishment
- product visualization

If you are interested in getting 3D modeling solutions at highest quality please don't hesitate to contact me.
