About Tyler Belle

3D Environment Artist | Multi-Platform Experience | Real-Time & High-Fidelity Workflows Hi there! I\'m a passionate and collaborative 3D Environment Artist with hands-on experience shipping titles across major platforms including PS3/PS4, Xbox360/Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, iOS and Android. I bring environments to life across a wide range of genres, from stylized mobile games to large-scale shooters. I specialize in end-to-end asset creation, from block-out and layout to final polish, optimization, and engine integration. Known for being a dependable teammate and a go-to problem solver, I thrive in both solo and cross-disciplinary environments. Tools & Pipelines: Maya · ZBrush · Substance Painter · Photoshop · TopoGun · xNormal · Marmoset Toolbag · Unreal Engine · Unity · Iray · Artec Studio 13 · GeomagicWrap · Wrap3 · Reality Capture · Vultus Bonus: I’m fluent in both modern and legacy pipelines—bringing versatility, speed, and a good dose of creative energy to every project. If you\'re looking for a dedicated artist with full production experience (and a good sense of humor), I\'m your guy.
