See my IT background ↗01 / SELECTED WORK
An original character designed for the world of Stray. From my own concept to modelling, sculpting and texturing.
Gravity Falls fan art. Sculpted, retopologised, rigged and textured, with final renders in Unreal Engine 5.
An Overwatch-style character study. My sculpt, retopology, posing and textures; concept by Hicham Habchi.
Characters are my favourite, but I’m interested in where 3D can go: games, visualisation, real-time experiences and beyond. Open to freelance and remote conversations, too.
02 / THE HUMAN BEHIND THE PIXELS
I’m Charlie, from South Devon. I graduated in Computer Games Design with First Class Honours and received the TIGA Graduate of the Year award for Artist in 2023.
Since then, I’ve worked on game-ready 3D assets, made coffee in busy cafés, helped at live events and kept exploring how things work. I’m also building a path towards IT and cybersecurity, with a Level 2 qualification in the Principles of Cyber Security.
Outside work? Music, vintage cameras, retro tech and finding something interesting around the next corner. Ideally with a camera in hand.
MY TOOLBOX
3ds Max / ZBrush / Substance
Painter & Designer / Unreal Engine / Photoshop / Marmoset /
Marvelous Designer
Created game-ready assets, materials and textures using Substance Painter and Unreal Engine 5. Worked with a studio team, took feedback and delivered to deadlines.
Espresso-based drinks, busy service, payments and stock. Comfortable helping customers and keeping things moving as part of a team as well as leading a team.
Supported visitors at live events and helped Year 9 students create short films in a media workshop.
Completed a Level 2 Certificate in the Principles of Cyber Security. Interested in entry-level IT support and security opportunities.
03 / A CHANGE OF SCENERY
The plan is to start in Melbourne, find my feet, meet good people and work along the way. Then explore more of the east coast - with a vintage camcorder coming along for the ride.
Creative neighbourhoods, cafés, live music and getting to know a new city properly.
3D and creative projects, IT support, or a great café team. I’d love to hear what you’re working on.
Make room for exploring, new faces and the moments worth catching on camera.
Open to freelance and remote conversations.
UpdatedON THE ROAD / THE TAPE ARCHIVE
Camcorder films and field notes, from Devon to Australia.
04 / THE PRACTICAL STUFF
3D modelling, character art, texturing, Unreal Engine and game-ready asset creation.
Technical foundations, cybersecurity training, transferable experience and professional development.
Barista, café, customer service and live-event experience, with a focus on friendly and efficient service.
05 / PLEASE DO TOUCH
A hello, a café tip, a little local knowledge.
LEAVE A POSTCARD ↗One floating head. Too many pipes. Questionable aerodynamics.
PLAY THE GAME ↗A shared canvas. Pick a colour and leave your mark with everyone else.
OPEN THE CANVAS ↗Melbourne, the east coast, or somewhere else entirely. Come say hi.
