Available to hire
Hi, I’m Suraj Behede. I’m a senior 3D modeler with over 13 years of experience specializing in hard-surface modeling, texturing, shading, and Unreal Engine. I design high‑resolution environments and assets for games, feature films, and animated series, and I enjoy building clean pipelines that boost production efficiency.
I thrive in team settings, lead and mentor artists, and stay hands-on with tools like Autodesk Maya, ZBrush, Substance Painter, Houdini, Unreal Engine, and even Generative AI art to expand creative possibilities from concept to shot finalization.
