I’m Ryan Laurie, a 3D Character Modeler, Technical Artist, and Animator focused on creating polished, pipeline-ready character assets. I translate 2D concepts, briefs, storyboards, and art direction into high-quality 3D models with strong attention to anatomy, silhouette, proportions, surface detail, and overall form. I enjoy the full production workflow—digital sculpting, UVs and optimization, texturing with PBR materials, rigging, and animation—while staying mindful of technical constraints and how changes impact the final result. I’ve built complete characters from scratch and collaborated closely with art direction and production to keep work consistent with a team’s pipeline.…I’m Ryan Laurie, a 3D Character Modeler, Technical Artist, and Animator focused on creating polished, pipeline-ready character assets.
