3D meshes

Sculpting a 3D objet d'art in Blender that others can both enjoy it and make use of it is something I perform with great zeal.

Focus on:

Game applications

My passion is computer game applications that relate to creative building, time management, world construction and education.

I use my skills in writing, graphic design and front-end development to create digital products where users are entertained while at the same time develop skills in parametric design and spatial reasoning & visualization.

More complex objects require the ranger to acquire parts from which they assemble the desired item, such as a saw rig, a lumber converter and a waterpump.
