My Bio
Born in Ecuador, lived in Peru, studying in Savannah, Georgia...wow, have I gone a long way now.

It's ok, people leave things behind every now and then. But the best things are the ones I always keep, the ones I always treasure.

Anyways, I'm getting a major in Game Design. Dream of my life, and I'm busting my butt into achieving my dream. Never was an arts person before, but the passion for games is bigger than John Goodman's appetite. My first game was Tetris in the GameBoy, and it was total awesomeness.

Every now and then I came with game ideas as a little kid. Small stories, very rough doodles of characters on my math homework, etc.

Now I'm trying to make this a profession. I'm practicing my drawing skills with some basic Digital Art and a constant update of my sketchbook. If someone ever needs a collab for a comic or something like that, I'm more than eager to help!

Over and out

Seriously, WHYYY!!!?? I seem to have little problems concerning Photoshop, 3D modeling, and other media. But pixeling? DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW HARD IT IS TO MINIMIZE A LOT OF A CHARACTER DETAILS AND MAKE IT LOOK SO GOOD!!?? God!! But anyways, it's Spring Break!! Huzzah!!It's actually half of the Spring Break already; already approaching dawn of Thursday. And I don't know if you know but a certain new handheld is coming out this Sunday! *cough* 3DS *cough* I'm kinda excited about it, although I'll be losing my DSi XL in the process. *sniffles* THOSE BEAUTIFUL SCREEEENS!!!!!!!! Oh well, it'll be worth it. Plus, if I don't trade it in, I won't

So yeah, it's been like, 2 months already?? I apologize for my sudden disappearance. But the good thing is that here I am again, bringing you new stuff…Actually, little new stuff. I've been terribly busy lately and, honestly, had a terrible cold this week. So, a recap of my Winter break comes first. It was fun, got to see my girl, Lu. Had lots of fun together; we went for ice cream and made dinner together, which was totally what I needed. On the gaming department, I spend some time developing my love for Dragon Quest. Played around 30 hours of Dragon Quest IX on my DS and Dragon Quest VIII on my brother's PS3, since it has BC. I also g

Today, Tom Symonds from Firaxis (Lead Artist for Civilization III, IV, and V) came along SCAD, and gave a small presentation and reviewed some portfolio from SCAD folks. Some day, that'll be me showing off my awesomeness of awesomeness portfolio! After tha presentation, I had the opportunity to talk to him. I told him about my current and humble begginings on the world of the arts and asked him for some advice. Tom then pulled out a couple of his sketchooks and showed me some of the awesomeness he always goes out and about drawing literally ANYTHING he sees. I caught a glimpse of some of his sketches of cars, small structures, gesture drawin

Hola! estas estudiando en SCAD? damn, you're so lucky! that was my dream college! q tal es? nunca llegue a ir
q software usas para tus modelos 3d?[link]
guin!!! hahaa la hermana de steph hehee, uso Maya principalmente, es algo distinto y dificil, pero silo manejo bien :D
q genial, quiero aprender Maya. Hace medio año yo solo sabia usar sketchup (si, telasa), y vine a paris y aca todo el mundo trabaja en 3d, asi q mis profes me hicieron un crash course a la volada, jaja. Este ciclo si voy a aprender Rhino a fondo.
parece q en USA usan mas Maya que otros programas... aca usan principalmente Rhino y en lima 3dmax.
y para renderizar usas vray?
uso raytracing usualmente, pero en cuestiones de rendering estoy aun aprendiendo :3
Hey thanks for the watch. :)
any time, be sure to watch me too :3
