Hi. I am Ronald Kary Black, and this is my portfolio site. My Dad didn't want Ronald Jr., but Mom wanted to name me after him, in a fine example of compromise I've gone by Kary since birth.

I'm at Digital Extremes, as an environment artist.

Skills

Modelling: I am experienced in prop and environmental modelling and comfortable with both hard surface, organic modelling and retopologizing.

Sculpting: Is something I really enjoy, be it for characters or adding the last layer of detail for a static mesh prop.

Texturing and Unwrapping:
I'm comfortable with a range of tools, from Silo and Roadkill's LSCM to Max's pelt and relax methods.

Traditional:
I have a classic art education and can effectively communicate visually for brainstorming sessions and similar.


Education:


I am a graduate of the Ontario College of Art and Design (OCAD), where  I studied an odd mix of film, video, holography, and drawing.
