Stories of forgotten warriors. This project has an emphasis on character design, environment, lighting, and texturing. All digital assets are modeled and rendered with Blender 3D. 2022.
I collaborated with the team at Tive Creative (Brazzz, Malcolm Ransome, Lake Len) to create the visuals for the "Nocturne: Key To My Heart" Valentine's Day stream — a locked heart, book, and key modeled, rigged, and animated in Blender.
Malcolm sketched and designed the key vector in Illustrator. I imported the final SVG into Blender and modeled the key from it.
From blockout to final look — the padlock heart and book went through several lighting and material passes before landing on the finished render.
Aditya "Deech" Peri is a SoCal-based digital artist. He currently works in the footwear industry as a 3D Footwear Designer. His experience spans 3D graphics, animation, and illustration.
Aditya's creative journey began many years ago with a pencil, sketching everything under the sun from cartoon characters to corporate sneaker logos. Over the years, his craft evolved and he added both analog (drawing/painting) and digital tools (3D art/graphic design/video editing) to his creative arsenal.
Aditya's work primarily centers around the Hero's Journey motif, drawing inspiration from pop culture, movies, and mythology. His characters are depictions of failure, agony, isolation, aspiration, and resilience.
Much like the characters he creates, Aditya sets ambitious goals and remains dedicated to his creative dreams. He is driven by the daily opportunity to hone his craft and shape his own story.
