3D COURSE COMPLETED!

From mid-May through mid-June, I had the opportunity to spend time in Vail, Arizona, where I dedicated myself to completing Crossmind Studio's "Let's Learn Animated Character Creation in 3D" course.

Over those weeks, I immersed myself in building stylized characters from the ground up, focusing on anatomy, clean topology, proportions, and developing a repeatable production workflow. The experience challenged me to move beyond simply following tutorials and instead understand the artistic decisions behind creating expressive, animation-ready characters.

One of the most rewarding parts of the process was designing and modeling an original cast of characters that will continue to evolve as I move into hair, clothing, rigging, and animation for my upcoming showreel.

I'm grateful to Crossmind Studio for such a comprehensive course and for helping me strengthen my character creation skills. Looking back on my time in Vail, I'm proud of how much progress was made and excited to continue building on that foundation.

I am currently modeling and rigging the following characters for my new show reel this summer.
