Hello! I'm Meloq Arai (Also known as Kirill Melnikov), and I'm a 3D Artist & Motion Designer. I use a combination of my own structured methodology, technical know-how, and artistic research to create visually compelling designs and push the frontiers of visual expression in my creative endeavors. My focus areas include creating procedural systems, animations and simulations, as well as photo-realistic texturing & rendering.
