About me

Name Sietske Wielsma
Date of birth 21 Aug 1990
Born and raised Nijmegen, Netherlands
Current Location Tokyo, Japan

My passion is the creation of polygonal assets and high resolution sculpts, combined into a final asset that works in a game engine. When I am tinkering away behind my pc in my spare time I am either working on my own environments or exploring the creation of characters either for games or demos. When I’m not behind my PC working or gaming you can find me attached to a climbing wall or enjoying my life in japan.

My strong points are Zbrush sculpting and Polygon modeling in Maya. Substance is my preferred choice for texturing my assets.
I have worked with various game engines and types of projects, big and small. Not only game asset creation but art workflow development, as well as training new/ junior employees, has played a big part in my work experience. I enjoy working in a varied team and collectively thinking to improve, not just the project itself, but also the longevity of tools for the developers themselves.

The following tools and software I am experienced with:

Autodesk Maya zbrush photoshop illustrator Substance_designer_logo_2 marvelous marmoset-toolbag-logo xbox-360-vector-logo-200x200 playstation-logo unityIcon Unreal Engine Oculus

Applications I can also work with:
Autodesk 3dsMax, Vray, World Machine, SpeedTree and Adobe Premiere.
