Yuriy is a fantastic artist who creates and refines characters in 3D, using some pretty focused skillsets to add the final and most important touch to creatures and characters; Fur and Feathers and Hair! Doing a “Groom” is a term for creating and applying specific hair styles, feather layouts of fur on a model and also making it so that it can be properly animated in whatever style the project demands.

He has had a long career, working for various companies in his home country of Ukraine and always refining his 3D and LookDev skills. Most recently he has co-founded his own company, the Biotic Factory, where they create ready made 3D assets for sale as well as working with companies as an outsource studio for realistic or stylized creature builds.
