Portfolio - https://www.artstation.com/tatasteep
3D Prop & Environment Artist with a strong engineering background, specializing in production-ready, optimized
assets for real-time projects.
Experienced in the full asset pipeline – from modeling and PBR texturing to optimization, LODs, and engine setup –
with a strong focus on mechanical and hard-surface props, technical accuracy, and scalability.
Worked within structured production pipelines, creating realistic and stylized props, modular assets, and environment
elements, with a particular focus on realistic props, material definition, and visual accuracy based on photo references.

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
3D Artist – Freelance / Game-Ready Props & Product Visualization | Remote | Jul. 2019 – Present
 Created mechanical and hard-surface props for game-ready environments with clean topology and PBR materials
for real-time applications.
 Created realistic props based on photo references and concepts, focusing on material definition, surface detail, and
visual credibility for real–time rendering.
 Delivered production–ready, optimized assets aligned with performance budgets, engine requirements, and real–
time rendering constraints for Unreal Engine and Unity projects.
 Managed the full asset production pipeline: modeling, retopology, UV unwrapping, texture baking, PBR texturing,
and engine–ready setup.
 Developed modular asset sets to support scalable environments and flexible scene assembly.
 Iterated on assets based on concept art and references, producing engine-ready, optimized assets for real-time
rendering.
 Produced product–focused 3D visualizations using game–asset quality standards for marketing and presentation
purposes.
Tools: Blender, Substance Painter, Marmoset Toolbag, Photoshop, CAD SolidWorks.
Mechanical Design Engineer – R&D Department in Triol Corporation | May 2014 – Jul. 2019
 Designed mechanical components using production–grade workflows in SolidWorks, following strict technical
requirements and documentation standards.
 Worked within structured pipelines, version control systems, and cross–functional Scrum teams.
 Mentored junior engineers and collaborated closely with manufacturing and engineering teams.
 Developed strong problem–solving skills, attention to detail, and workflow discipline, now directly applied to high–
quality 3D asset production.
