Designing Dreams

It started with a dream...

I had a dream about a kingdom - Verronae. and from that moment on, I had to have her. I've never wanted to design and build using the buildings made by other creators. I designed Verronae from that inner-desire that i needed desperately to *live*. It needed to be different. It needed to make a visitor to that kingdom feel what I was feeling. There's another world inside me, and I found myself wanting to share every bit of it. Everything. Every Quirk. Every beauty. Every horror.

my tools and my workflow...

I usually start with a drawing on the 12.9" iPad Pro. Drawing helps me to focus - I keep a digital notebook full of drawings of things I am thinking of building. Concept is an infinite canvas app that really keeps me moving when i am working through project ideas. Afterward, I move to blender to model and do my textures in Photoshop. My favorite tools are:

Blender, Substance Painter, Shapr-3d, Morpholio Trace
Concepts, Affinity Photo, Affinity Designer, Photoshop, Gimp
Espresso, Kouign Ammans, Croissants, White Chocolate Macadamia International Delight

“You can do whatever you see in your mind's eye. Dare to imagine more.”
