Game Developer

When approaching a design, I use my extensive knowledge of Psychology, History, and Design to produce in depth concepts and projects, where every detail is carefully curated to build towards a wider experience.

I have worked with multiple game engines including Unreal and Unity to produce projects intended for diverse platforms including PC, Console, Mobile, and VR.

I have also developed 3D models and textures/materials for use in my game design as well as independent projects.

Tools: Unreal, Unity, C#, Blueprints, Maya, Blender, Substance 3D Painter, Photoshop, Alias

Mainz Gladius

The Mainz Gladius was forged in 15 BC and was likely used in the eastward expansion of the Roman Empire until falling into the River Rhine under unknown circumstances. An iconic symbol of the Roman Empire, this sword, now held in the British Museum, has been copied time and time again over it’s storied history. Here is my attempt to capture this blade, working from a replica reference.

Artefact

The project that started it all. This is my first foray into the world of virtual creativity, and so it will always hold a special place in my creative journey. A powerful weapon from a culture long disappeared from the universe, the Artefact has long been coveted by the galaxy’s denizens over the aeons. Having passed through so many hands, claws, tentacles, and manipulator fields, it is doubtful it’s original creator would even recognise it, however it still brings unimaginable power to those brave enough to claim it as their own.
