Summary

I'm a UK based 3d artist from South Wales. I studied 3d modeling at the University of Glamorgan, receiving 1st Class Bachelor of Arts in 2010. Since graduating I've worked in TV production: creating 3d assets and textures for children's television, created characters and vehicles as a Freelance video games artist and most recently contributed to the successful Total War series as a campaign map artist for The Creative Assembly.

I often work on personal side projects outside of full-time work to further develop my skills, most of which can be viewed on my portfolio.
