Hi! I'm Troy. Growing up I've always had at least some form of art as a fascination, going from sketching to painting to animating to music to photography... you get the idea. In recent years I've been developing my skills in 3D art and animation. I hope that I can make use of my skills in the industry in whichever way people will have me as I believe I have a lot to offer.
