Senior 3D Artist

Summary

Hi. I am Yin Shiuan. (nickname)

I've over 10 years of professional 3D asset experience for feature animation and AAA video games, including How to train your dragon TV, LEGO Star Wars, Monster Hunter World, Resident Evil 7, etc. I specialize in photoreal 3D character and focus on creating believable 3D artwork.

Fully understanding of 3D asset workflow, PBR workflow, non-destructive procedural workflow(Substance Designer), scan data clean up/wrapping workflow and human anatomy. I have strong experience of procedural texturing and strong motivation for creating hyperrealistic character. Over many years, not just only working on the different types of 3D assets, but I also keep pushing my self to create high-quality realistic character.

Currently, I'm working in a game industry in Taiwan. I'm exposed to a wide variety of jobs such as environment, FX, procedural modeling, procedural texturing, and pipeline development. I enjoy R&D and also love chasing world-class artwork every day.

My professional skills are modeling, texturing, shading, lighting, hair. I also have the
ability to develop some custom tools based on the Maya MEL scripting.
