As a freelance 2D and 3D Artist, I possess extensive experience in building visual worlds for game development and digital media projects. Throughout my career, I have produced numerous character designs and environment models, demonstrating the capability to meet a project's visual requirements from A to Z. What Do I Do? Instead of focusing on a single discipline, I play an active role in both the 2D Concept and 3D Production stages to ensure a cohesive vision: Character Design: Creating anatomically correct or stylized characters; managing the entire process from initial concept art to 3D modeling, texturing, and preparing game-ready assets. Environment Design: Building atmospheric locations that support the narrative, designing props, and creating 3D assets optimized for level design.

During my time at EgemenTech, I specialized in the visual development of a real-time strategy (RTS) mobile game focused on historical world domination.

Key Responsibilities & Achievements: Character Design: I designed a wide range of historical figures and military units, including Vikings, Knights, and other legendary warriors from world-conquering empires. I focused on balancing historical authenticity with the visual clarity required for mobile gameplay. Environment Art: I created immersive battlegrounds and environmental assets that reflected the unique eras of the featured civilizations, ensuring a consistent and high-quality aesthetic across the game. RTS Optimization: I developed characters and environments specifically for real-time mechanics, ensuring that designs remained distinct and recognizable even at the smaller scales typical of mobile strategy games. World-Building: I collaborated closely with the creative team to establish the visual identity of various global governments, helping to narrate the story of world history through art. This role allowed me to master the art of creating high-performance, visually striking assets for the competitive mobile gaming market.
