About

With one parent in the U.S. Air Force, family lived on military bases hearing jets fly over base housing for 12 years of my life I enjoy drawing/texturing armed vehicles. It has been many years working for 3d games using tools such as Unreal Engine 4, Radiant-Call of Duty Black Ops 3, Speed tree, Photoshop,3d Studio Max, and Maya. 3d modeling and texturing should count for something towards concept art , production art and design.
