Milenkovic. I am a 3D artist and animator with an MFA in Interactive Media, and a BS in Computer Science. Online, I usually go by Snuffysam, and I often stamp my works with the label \u201cSnuffysam Media\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>I have been using both Maya and Blender for art and animation since 2012. In that time, my style has evolved to be bold and cartoony, with snappy movements, designed to look similar to 2D art. However, I can adapt to animating and modeling any style.<\/p>\n<p>I use both Photoshop and Illustrator to enhance my 3D artworks. I have experience implementing my 3D art and animations in both Unity and Unreal Engine 4.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/snuffysam.com\/downloads\/H_S_Milenkovic_Resume.pdf\">You can download my resume here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Feel free to contact me for any professional inquiries!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:hs.milenkovic@gmail.com\">Email<\/a> |&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/snuffysam\">Twitter<\/a> |&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/snuffysam\/\">LinkedIn<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Below is a portfolio showcasing my 3D works.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3>3D Art<\/h3>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"vertical-align: top; width: 50%;\">\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/snuffysam.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/galaxyKnightsPageDemo.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1970 size-large\" style=\"width: 960px;\" src=\"http:\/\/snuffysam.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/galaxyKnightsPageDemo-662x1024.png\" alt=\"Hevuga Village Model\" width=\"656\" height=\"1015\" srcset=\"http:\/\/snuffysam.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/galaxyKnightsPageDemo-662x1024.png 662w, http:\/\/snuffysam.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/galaxyKnightsPageDemo-194x300.png 194w, http:\/\/snuffysam.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/galaxyKnightsPageDemo-768x1187.png 768w, http:\/\/snuffysam.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/galaxyKnightsPageDemo.png 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 656px) 100vw, 656px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/snuffysam.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screen-Shot-2024-02-10-at-8.37.14-PM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1972\" src=\"http:\/\/snuffysam.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Screen-Shot-2024-02-10-at-8.37.14-PM.png\" alt=\"Steamgear Inc.
