I'm Lukas, a 3D Animator with a love for stylized animation! I'm originally from Germany, but moved to the UK to study Animation and have now been working in the games industry for close to 3 years.

Biography

After graduating in 2019 I started as the only animator at a small independent studio in Scotland called Puny Astronaut which is funded by 4J Studios, developing their debut title Skye Tales. I then left the studio at the end of April 2021 to work at Jagex on RuneScape 3 and have since worked on last year's Elder God Wars content as well as a couple of other smaller releases.
