Hi, I am Ivan and my main goal is to make scenes that look very photorealistic inside real-time engines. I love to work with Blender and Unity together to create amazing results.

Biography

I have a System Engineering Bachellor's degree, a branch of computer science. By time I was studying, I also decided to learn about how games are made, specially the part of the art. My career and and self-learning path allowed me to combine programming and art in order to achieve photorealistic results on personal projects. So far I have been able to get pretty confortable working with 3D models that have a clean topology and sort of a reasonable amount of vertices. Furthermore, I have experience working with PBR materials and I feel very confident of how to use them and sometimes modify the shaders that they are part of in order to achieve certain results. Moreover, rigging is a little bit new for me, but I can assure you that I get my way around on how to create bones and parent them to rig 3D objects. In addition, I have learned how to make game ready assets, specially the ones that look photorealistic, I know how to UV unwrap, texture and bake the necessary maps that a game ready asset needs. My main tools that I use are Blender for 3D modeling, rigging and UV unwrapping, Substance painter for texturing and baking maps(like AO maps, normal maps, and more), and Unity for rendering and showcasing my 3D models. I feel very confident programming in C#, C++ and Java, I can also create shaders using a node base programming language like shader graph in Unity. Lastly I have 3 months of experience working as an intern for a game company here in my country.
