I am Shiloh Steinhebel.
I'm a highly creative, artistic, and multitalented 3D CG Artist with 10+ years of experience in 3D modeling and texturing for all digital 3D mediums. I've developed props and environmental assets using Maya and Substance Painter, among other digital content creation software. I'm highly adaptable and self-motivated, and I excel at problem-solving, and collaborative teamwork.
I love what I do and my craft! I'm an easy-going, fun-loving dude who loves blades, bags*, brushes**, and CG. I'm witty and have a quick sense of humor, and making people laugh. I have an excellent eye for detail and tend to be detail oriented, which is a requirement in this line of work. I’m a problem solver too, a quick learner, and I am great at weighing options and executing calculated decisions. I love working with a team to collaborate and bounce ideas off team-mates. I also have a knack for working independently with a given set of tasks and little micro-managing.
* - Not purses, Man-bags
** - Uh, Photoshop brushes, that is
