Hi, I’m AQUKAY, an independent artist and the owner of 370J MEDIA COMMONS. I specialize in lead concept art, 3D modeling, and level design, building immersive environments and assets for games and branding using Blender, Unity, and Unreal Engine. When I’m not crafting visuals, I create indie comics and run workshops, helping teams and clients bring bold skate-culture energy to life. I love collaborating across disciplines to blend a campy, loud early-2000s skateboarding vibe with eerie, atmospheric tones.…Hi, I’m AQUKAY, an independent artist and the owner of 370J MEDIA COMMONS.
