This 3D generalist is making a name for himself on Singular right now with his 3D collections ‘SphinxCat’ and ‘Friends’. There’s a great blend of realistic textures and objects with more stylized features in each artwork, and Makeitreal’s mastery of lighting and texturing is particularly effective.

What is your background as an artist in general?
3d generalist from adv/video production/films
What is your overall process in generating art?
Lately I’ve been making characters in 3d at once, as I have an idea of the upcoming composition.
Sometimes I draw a concept with a pencil on paper and then proceed to 3d.
How would you describe your art in your own words?
Semi-realistic characters. Mix of stylization & photoreal. Like to use depth of field.

Favourite artists / influences?
Mostly surrealists, expressionists and symbolists.
How did you discover the new blockchain world of Crypto Art and NFTs in general?
I came across digital artists who also became NFT artists and decided to try it out myself.
What are the biggest challenges for artists in the NFT space?
Continue making good works instead of making good-selling stuff. Great competition, gas fees & promo difficulties.
What are the some of the biggest opportunites for artists in the NFT space?
Start making what you really like to do. Without any client proofs and such things.
What are your plans for the future?
Continue to work on 2 collections.
