I’ve been passionate about video games and art for as long as I can remember, so I smooshed them together and found a job in it. I’m into all things planes, trains and autocannons. If it’s mechanical, I love to find out how it works and functions. I’ve had a few different roles as both Hard Surface Artist and a little more specialised in Weapon Art through my career, so weapons and military tech interest me too. I grew up exposed to many old shows, with a fond love for all Gerry Anderson works, such as the Thunderbirds, which showed me the wonders of early film and entertainment’s smoke and mirrors. This also lead me to pick up some “old fashioned” hobbies, such as whittling and model making like so many others here. I’ve also got a keen knowledge for history and will learn about the history of any places I visit. I’ve recently got into retro game emulation with both handheld systems and building a retro library on an old PC. I also tend to play lesser known games or more realistic milsim simulators. But with friends I play very casual coops like Deep Rock Galactic!
