Stefan David | 3d artist
It all started with set 367. Modeling and reading technical drawings at the age of five. He loved Lego. By the age of seven he was doing the technic boxes meant for twelve year olds. Thinking he was so smart he later enrolled in university to become an aerospace engineer. He was headed for a bright and promising future. Unfortunately at the faculty they gave him access to a CAD system where he learned 3d modeling. And he liked it.
To get his daily 3d fix he went to the school of Art, Media and Technology. There he joined up with fellow students and produced a demo game. This landed him his first job in the games industry in 1995.
Over the years Stefan has worked for several games and animation studios. He is said to be responsible for ruining the childhood of many children by designing the most annoying cat in Dutch history: Redcat. He has modeled a low poly version of David Hasselhoff’s perm and got his approval for it. He joined Rare Ltd and dared to eat his steak Medium there. He ate duck feet with the guys from Bungie. He finished first in this year’s great race to Großarl. He seems to respond better to Wamba than his real name. His real name contains 29 letters, not 11.
