Hi, I’m María Fuentes Banegas, a 3D animator and modeler based in Berlin, Germany. I specialize in building stylized and realistic characters, rigging, and turning motion capture data into clean, expressive animation using Blender and Maya.
With two years of experience in short films and indie games, I’m passionate about developing assets and characters across stylized and realistic projects. I enjoy collaborating with directors and teams to bring ideas to life—from concept art and storyboards to final renders.
