Welcome to my blog

Hello future reader! And welcome to PLAYING WITH POLYGON. My name is Omar, I am an aspiring 3D artist, I do 3D models at many levels, from high poly sculpts to low poly Nintendo DS level (and obviously everything in between). I do hard-surface modelling, character modelling, and even environmental modelling. Currently I don’t know what direction to take my skill and focus upon, so in this blog, I will be doing a plethora of experimentation (thus the name) to determine where I should go from here.

While I love 3D, I was originally a gamer from the retro days of 8-bit graphics, my first console was an Atari, and my first game was Pac-man. With the modern day, games have improved exponentially on all fronts, from storytelling to game design to audio and most visually obvious, graphics. I do 3D because I wish to contribute something to the form of entertainment I like most! My other hobbies would be reading books/comics/manga, watching anime/cartoon/tv series/listen to music, etc.

I'm a part time student at Stafford University, the part time is because I'm on yet another year out due to my duties as a carer for my parents, and I only have 1 more semester to do, 3 month! 4 modules! so hopefully, I can find the time to actually finish it and move on with my degree, maybe do a Masters if I have time.

With this blog, I aim to motivate myself to focus on work, keep track of my progress and improvement, and hopefully, in the future when I look at my past work, I will be disgusted at the notion of ever uploading something so bad, because then and only then would I have actually improved!

With all that said, due to my commitment to my family, I might not have all that much time to do work to upload here, so my 3D work may be far and few in between, but I will also share my thoughts and views about other topics.

Mini Biography

Picture
My name is Omar Hebshi, I also go by the alias Maxram0, and I am an aspiring 3D artist.

I am currently a part-time worker, part-time carer, a husband, a chef, a collector of figurine, and a full-time student (at least, as much as I can). I focus on self-improving my 3D skills, principles, and disciplines, as well as experimenting in shader and game engines.

Life is a journey of constant learning and developing, and I wish to spend that time learning and developing my skill in the area that provided me with the most joy and wonder in my youth, video games, art, and being creative! So in return, I can provide others with the same joy and wonder I once had, and inspire them to be creative and expressive themselves to the best of their ability.

I'm an artist, a gamer, a fan of anime, manga, light novels, books, comics, movies, and many other mediums of entertainment and escapism.

Résumé (coming eventually)

Playing With Polygon

Playing with polygon is a name born from my lowest point, it was the words I would say when I don’t wish to acknowledge the thing I was doing was 3D work, because I enjoyed the fun and discovery of just playing in the 3rd dimension. Now I use it as a reminder of why I love doing what I love, it is my proof of the perseverance in the hardest of times, physically and emotionally.

I plan to transform these words into a brand in the future, that provides artworks, tutorials, and architectural visualisations.
