About
I’m Lester D.L. Partaker, a freelance 3D Artist and Concept Artist based in Edmonton, Alberta. I work with NAIT as a freelance designer, using Maya, Blender, Adobe Creative Suite and game engines like Unreal Engine and Unity to transform 2D designs into immersive 3D assets. I can provide UV unwrapping, texture maps and texture optimization to meet in-game polygon count requirements.
I also create lighting and mood for environments, develop character designs and reference sheets, and translate traditional drawing techniques into digital workflows to deliver ready-to-use assets on tight timelines.
