Process
From concept to final model: shape blocking, sculpting, retopology, UVs, and texturing. Every piece is built with clean topology and production-ready materials.

About
I design and animate characters and worlds. Working at the intersection of 3D, illustration, and visual storytelling.
I am Lucía Montaña. I have spent years shaping characters and environments, combining traditional techniques with a modern 3D pipeline. Every piece begins with a hand-drawn sketch and finishes lookdev'd for production integration.
My work spans animated short films, editorial motion design, and game art. I thrive on projects where visual language takes center stage.

3D
Digital modeling and sculpting — characters, props, and environments built with a focus on form, topology, and production-ready materials.
Approach
Characters, props, and environments focused on silhouette, proportion, and volume readability. Aesthetics drive the technique — not the other way around.
Tools
Blender and ZBrush for modeling and sculpting; Substance for PBR texturing; rendering and lookdev to integrate each model into its scene.
