So, I decided to make a portrait of her when I had a break between projects. SY: I’m a huge League of Legends fan, and she’s very attractive. PB: What inspired you to create Jinx’s portrait, and what was your process? I’m also working on heroes and monsters from One Punch Man.

I’ve been working on realistic versions of Saitama, the main character in the series, and one of them has my face. One Punch Man is my favorite cartoon and has been a great inspiration. I can’t stop making 3D characters and, as technology advances, I am constantly studying. I’m able to make what I really want to make, which makes me so happy. SY: The personal work fills me up creatively. PB: How is your personal character work different from what you do professionally? At the time, I was making portraits for my portfolio of Ninja Turtles and Buzz Lightyear.īefore that, I was only using Maya, but I learned ZBrush in school and thought it was much more intuitive for modeling than traditional software. I think it’s also enjoyable to share works with others and see how artists express ourselves differently. I quickly became immersed in 3D and thought that I was better at it than I had been with design.

That’s when I found 3D modeling and formed a 3D club with my friends. That’s what I thought, too, so I tried to find a special skill that I could focus on during a vacation break. Seungnam Yang: I majored in design at university, but the professor told me I had no talent. PremiumBeat: How did you get into 3D character modeling? We talked with Yang-who plays League of Legends a lot-about his workflow, the Jinx portrait, and what he does as a commercial character artist.
