My name is Nelson Yih Cherng Tay. I mainly focus on high-res and detailed models. My work includes all organic and non-organic modeling and texturing for the feature film, animated film, and a next-gen game. I am an artist who really has passion and love working on computer-generated imagery. Additionally, I have seven years of experience in using Maya software and five years using ZBrush. Last, I am comfortably able to do photo-realistic and stylized art.
