RICH SUCHY 3D MODEL & DESIGN
ABOUT
I've been working in the production of entertainment since 1987, Comic Book Illustration for such notables as Marvel Comics Group and Dark Horse Comics since 1991, Television since 1998, Feature Films since 2003. I am a 3D generalist with specialties in 3D Character Modeling and Texture though, over the years, I've had my hand in just about every role, supervised, and directed.
