Hi, I’m Derek.

I’m a 3D artist specializing in product visualization with Cinema 4D and Redshift. I build scenes that feel tactile and real, while maintaining style and personality.

I also teach. Over 190K artists follow my tutorials, which means the techniques I use on client work are ones I understand deeply enough to explain.
