3D Game Artist · Studio + Contract

Game-ready art that ships clean, optimized, and on brief.

I’m John Hutchinson. With 5+ years inside gaming studios I build production assets in 3ds Max, Substance Painter, and Photoshop —Now recently add A.I. to accelerate generation with Meshy 3D and Grok 3 without giving up topology, UVs, or performance.

Demonstration

Proof of skill, not just stills.

These Video below will demonstrates my skills through using 3ds max, Substance Painter, Photoshop with emphasis of clean quad topology and optimized UV layouts-Utilizing mirrored UVs, UV stacking and texture aliasing for maximum Texel density. Efficient loop animation sequences for Games.

Studio production

Since College, I've thrived in fast-paced enviroment, starting with over a year at Progressive Gaming,inc where I use adobe apps to create 2D graphic Logos and 3ds max for producing full scene 3d animations. I had to create full scene animations in a fast phase work environment. At my last Job came with almost four years of experience in gaming studio I've learned to professionally 3d model game assets and characters with clean flowing quad topology in mind. I have a better grasp in approaching complex unwrapping with a focus on strict Texel density budgets, perfect seam placement, and zero wasted texture space. With Proper optimize rigging and hand keyframing animation I've learned to produce loop animations with characters and props.

Production

3D modeling

Form language, silhouette, and clean topology built for games — not just renders.

Game UV unwrapping

Efficient shells, texel density, and unwraps that survive baking, painting, and engine import.

Animation

My Junior level skills in using 3ds max's cat, biped, and bones on Hand-keyed motion that loop and reads in-engine and pose clarity first.

HandKeyframing

3D game optimization for export

Unity-facing export discipline: scale, collision-ready meshes, and assets that hold performance after they leave DCC.

Contract experience

Client-facing contract work — As a client facing contractor, I operate as a hired gun to create specific assets tailored to a client's needs, deliver optimized work on deadline and adapt seamlessy to the exiting art direction of the broader project.

Demonstration

Next Gen A.I Tool. Not a replacement.

These Videos will show that I have recently expanded my creative toolkit to include A.I-generated art, allowing me to accelerate concept development and deliver innovative visual solutions, by using Grok 3, chat GPT 4, Meshy A.I 3d and Gemini tools into my pipeline.

Meshy 3D in the pipeline

AI as a multiplier — generate, then retopo, unwrap, and finish to game standards.

AI asset iteration

Faster exploration of forms and materials while keeping the artist in control of the final mesh.

Traditional DCC craft first. AI only where it accelerates generation — never where it cheapens topology or UVs.
