About

Hi! I’m Toby, a 2D and 3D game art student based in Nova Scotia, Canada.

I have a passion for storytelling, art, and crafting immersive experiences. I’m currently studying to develop my skills as an artist, leader, and game developer.

When I’m not designing or brainstorming ideas, I enjoy exploring creative projects, learning new skills, or just simply playing a game. I’m always looking for ways to grow both professionally and personally every day.

Feel free to check out my work and reach out if you’d like to collaborate or chat!

Subway Model

This was the final project from my first year Game Engine class. It is a model of a 81-740/741 train that I had to re-create from an assigned reference image. The goal of the assignment was to create a looping environment within Unity. I made the model within Blender and textured it in Substance Painter.

Live Demo

Title Screen Demo

For this project the goal was to create a fully functional and polished Title Screen within Unity. All of the 3D assets were made by myself in Blender, and they were textured in Substance Painter. I originally wanted to implement this into my other project, "Cybercitic", but we ran out of time.

Full Playthrough

Cybercitic

This was a project that I worked on with a programmer from our sister course. Together we created an upgrade game over the course of 11 weeks using a biweekly sprint-based workflow. I created all of the 2D and 3D assets visible in the game, and also helped with sound design.

Character Model

For this project, my main goal was to learn Blockbench and fully design, model, rig, and animate a character. I went with something slightly higher poly than the average Blockbench model
but I am happy with how it turned out. I also used this character in Cybercitic, though not in 3D.

Misc Game Jams

Collection of game jams I have worked on.

I worked with two of my classmates and two people we met virtually for this game jam. I made the player character, main level layout, and UI elements.

I was initially in a team with two students from the Game Programming course in this game jam, but we all got too busy with finals and had to drop out. Despite that, I made some stuff that I was proud of while we were still in it.
