“I have always been fond of dinosaurs since my childhood, and likewise I always wanted to create a model of a dinosaur in 3D. I was impressed by the Jurassic Park movies and later found out that the dinosaurs were made with the help of computers. From that moment on, much of my time was dedicated to CG, which is now both my hobby as well my work.”
