Who I am

Nice to meet you

Heya! I'm Jarno Blankestijn, a 3D generalist working across modelling, texturing, shading, environment work and Unreal Engine for films, series and commercials. Alongside that I build web projects, write scripts and tools, and maintain my own PC systems and homelab server.

I'm self-taught in most of what I do, and I learn best by doing. Whether it's a shader, a frontend build, a Python script to automate something repetitive, or getting a service running on my homelab, I like to figure out how things work and make them production-ready.

Outside of work, computers and 3D, I spend my time outdoors when I can. I ride horses and have done so for years, and it's one of my favourite things. I love being outside and getting inspired by nature.
