Gaming and game engines are my hobby, which I feed creating Mods, re-texturing, cut-scenes, and cinematic trailers in UDK & DA toolsets. See example here, and one more for fun...
Worked on some of the Dark Times: The Confederacy of Malkuth cutscenes, and the Unchained Darkness: Prelude intro cinematic (custom modules for the Dragon Age game by Bioware/EA).
