I have been painting fine art since I was 7 years old and have had many private instructors up until high school. In high school I consumed everything art from drawing, painting, pastels, sculpting, digital art, photography, and more. After high school I went to the Art Institute of Phoenix and graduated with a BA in Media arts and Animation. I didn't do much with my degree. Years passed by and my buddy from when I was 8 years old came up with the idea to create a Warhammer 40k massive game board in 2017. We have been working on the 24' x 6' game board city for 3 years now. This has rekindled the fire I have had all the miniatures and dioramas that I would want to create. 2020 rolled around and my friend guided me into 3d printing. I was wary at first but found it very easy and satisfying to print. I had lost my job at the end of 2020 and had some extra time on my hands and found many you tubers that did crafting and painting of miniatures, tabletop terrain, and dioramas. So I decided with limited resources to create some mandalorian dioramas for my 3 nephews. They loved them and that is when I came across the myminifactory competitions. This hobby has helped my sanity between jobs and has reignited my passion for the hobby.
