About

I’m Iakov Gorshkov, a 3D generalist fluent across the full character pipeline. I sculpt, model, retopologize, UV, texture, rig, and animate in Blender, Maya, and ZBrush, with a strong emphasis on character work. I also bring motion design and 2D illustration into the mix to tell stories with a hybrid approach.

With two years in production roles—from an online education platform to a creative studio—I’ve shipped characters and short-form animated work end-to-end. I thrive in teams where breadth across the pipeline is a strength, not a fallback, and I value brand alignment, fast iteration cycles, and async collaboration in distributed setups.
