About Gabriel

Hi, I’m Gabriel — a 3D artist with a strong passion for bringing ideas to life through digital modeling and animation. I work primarily with Blender, and I enjoy creating everything from stylized characters and environments to realistic props and animated sequences. My journey into 3D art began with a curiosity about how the worlds in games and films are made, and that curiosity quickly grew into a skill set I’ve been developing ever since. I love the process of building things from scratch — shaping a simple cube into something expressive, detailed, and full of personality. Over time, I’ve gained experience in modeling, texturing, lighting, and animation. I also enjoy teaching what I’ve learned, helping others get comfortable with Blender and understand the fundamentals of 3D design. I believe in staying up to date with new tools and techniques, and I’m always looking for ways to improve my craft and push my creativity further. Whether I’m working on a game asset, a short animation, or a personal project, I always aim to tell a story through my work — even if it’s just a few seconds long.
