Created a line of human character heads. Some of them were scanned by me, the others were made based upon scans we purchased, and yet others were created without any scanned data used. Photo-scanned and created hands for the HUD and all male human characters. Human face expressions: photogrammetry, sculpting, texturing.
I was responsible and Implemented the system of human eyes in the game (research, experiments, joint work with a programmer. The eye shader may well be the single most complex shader in the whole project, even through not all of the results of our work ended up being used in the release version of the game. https://www.artstation.com/artwork/8eB2Yn
The main goal I defined - doing everything possible to make characters faces, eyes and hands look more realistic and more detailed exactly in the game engine and not just in a Marmoset.

Since the fall of 2015, I have been working full-time at 4a-Games Malta, as a Character Artist
• Art Direction; at "CrimeCraft" project. http://crimecraft.mayngames.com/
• Character modeling, UV mapping and texturing;
• Supervision internal and external art teams during art-assets production
As Freelancer, I have created several 3D heads with portrait likeness of 4a-Games employees for the Metro 2033 game. As you know, at that time (2007) there was no such technology as photogrammetry, so similarity was achieved by visual comparison of their photos and 3D models in the software viewport. Few screenshots from Maya view-port (not game engine)
