Biography

My name is Aiman Akhtar and I'm a lead 3D artist and producer, specialized in stylized character and asset development for animation, games, and toys. 

After 6 years of working as a 3D generalist at various advertising studios in Chicago for commercial brands including Harley-Davidson, McDonald's and Hotels.com, I left to pursue a career in entertainment design in Los Angeles and have since worked for vfx, animation and game companies on projects for Disney, Dreamworks, Nickelodeon, Blizzard, 3Blackdot, Aaron Sims Creative,  Alliance Studios, Method, Psyop, Proof, Stoopid Buddy, and Sky Castle Studios.

I also founded a startup to develop my own children’s IP Fungisaurs, and I occasionaly share tutorials on my projects as an official streamer for ZBrush Live.

I primarily use Maya, Modo, Unreal, ZBrush, Photoshop and After Effects, and have experience with Nuke, Substance Painter and Arnold/Mental Ray. 

Always on the lookout for interesting opportunities and challenging projects. So, check out my work, and if you like what you see, shoot me an email at [email protected].
