On the weekend I rode my skateboard 100km for @thePMCF with the Toronto E-riders! We smashed our donation goal and have been resting our legs. #fundraiser #CancerResearch

My feet and voice are well and truly cooked. #GDC2024 complete. It's been a terrible year for the games industry, but meeting and talking with everyone and seeing all the cool shit being made has once again ignited my spark and love for this industry.

There is actually some great tools on display at #GDC2024 this year. @InstaLOD was a stand out for me. It's more than just a LOD tool and could be very useful for scan data Artists or anyone handling incredibly high poly meshes that need to make their way into games engines

I do a lot of destruction simulation and this had my head buzzing with the fact it could make being able to clean up the mess that fracture Sims cause much easier.

My last project at PlayStation Studios was on The Last of Us Part II Remastered, doing rig setup, character skinning, and cloth sim. If anyone needs a character technical director who's into character rigging and developing tools in Maya with Python, I'm looking.

Do it.
I have been wanting to do mentorships for a long time but my imposter syndrome is kinda holding me back. In a way to give back to the community and show myself that I can do this - I’d like to do a few sessions for free!

More than 6,000 people lost their jobs making video games this year. My #TheGameAwards speech might be eight years old, but it still sums up everything I’d want to say to those who were laid off and made our games this year. Your work is worth it. Thank you.

Remembering that time, I was too lazy to make game art shoes, so I made a whole scanning station instead... artstation.com/kazperstan/bl…

Here's some of the shots I animated for the wisp prime trailer. Very surreal to be coming back to a character I originally created the gameplay animations for, now in cinematic form! Was a delight to spend this much time with a character I feel so close to 😍! #warframe

People ask me what my speciality in making game art is... It's not Hard surface, it's not city building or material work. My thing is "figuring it the fuck out".

About 15 years ago, I stopped asking to work on specific films at ILM and instead started asking to work with specific PEOPLE. Artists I knew I could learn from. Nothing has boosted my career growth and job satisfaction more than that single conscious choice.
