about-img

My name is Whitney Nachman. I am 17 years old and I have made countless characters, commercials and various projects. I love making both commercial and character work. I am knowledgeable in 3D modeling, digital sculpting and retopology.

I am knowledgeable in procedural and hand made texturing, rigging and animation. With over 5 years of paid client work, I specialize in Blender, Maya, Unreal Engine, robot systems engineering, and 3D prototyping.

“For me, 3D isn’t just about making things look good, it’s about making them feel real."
