Colin Willow.

3D artist, motion designer, and general chaos agent based wherever the wifi works. i make characters, creatures, and things that glow — usually for brands that want to look like they're living in 2047.

full pipeline from concept sketch to game-ready asset. obsessed with the moment something rendered finally looks alive. currently also just trying to figure out what the AI stuff means for all of us.

the brain trust — what even is this stuff?

[ + ]

full pipeline character work — concept to game-ready topology. sculpting, modeling, texturing, rigging, retopo. the whole enchilada. also really into product vis because making a can of pepsi look cooler than it deserves to is deeply satisfying.
