How I work

Sculpt

High-poly sculpting in ZBrush — from primary forms down to micro detail.

Retopo & UVs

Clean, animation-ready topology and optimized UV layouts in Maya.

Texture & Lookdev

PBR texturing in Substance Painter; shading and lookdev in Arnold or Unreal Engine 5.

Groom & Render

Fur and feathers in Houdini; final lighting, rendering and compositing in Nuke.

02 — About

A 3D artist who explores the whole pipeline

I'm Alexandre Giraud, a 3D imagery artist trained at Cégep de Matane (Québec, Canada). My passion: characters and creatures, from concept to final image.

Realistic or stylized, every project is a chance to explore a new workflow — skin displacement, fur grooming in Houdini, real-time pipeline in Unreal, or raptor feathers for a scientific community.

Let's work
together

Based in Québec, Canada — available for internships, junior positions and collaborations. Every character deserves to come alive: let's build the next one together.
