Tyreik Pennicooke

My name is Tyreik Pennicooke and I like to create art using 3D modeling software. I create artwork for video games and advertisements. This medium is important to me because playing video games has been a major part of my life since I was a child. When I was young, I was heavily influenced by games like Zelda and Super Mario. I mostly create assets for video games that are the most complete form of art, the most interactive. I feel that the best way for someone to experience my assets hands-on is to interact with them in a video game.
In my work, I strive for realism. I always try to create something as lifelike as possible. I combine aspects of 3D modeling and photoshop to create a model and a texture for my pieces. I enjoy creating fictitious works, I like to create things that have never been seen before. My work ranges from dark and deranged to light and humorous. I have also created a lot of work using all types of mediums. My work has always been focused on realism. My renders are focused on accuracy and capturing exactly what I’m looking at. I prefer to make game assets, there’s something about seeing my assets in a playable scene that fascinates me. All of my work is powered by personal experiences and realism.
