Now under the username: @minecraftyachtdesigns

Introduction: I had a lot of free time during quarantine to focus on what I loved doing: designing. I lacked the 3D software, appropriate hardware, and experience to create 3D models. I turned to Minecraft, something viewed as a children’s game, to “materialize” my ideas.

On average, depending on the projects size, they would take 3 - 10 hours to create.

Achievements: My Instagram page acted as a portfolio for my ship designs. The page reached 1000 followers within a few months.

I posted “M/Y Centerfold,” a partial rebuild of a design released by the NuvolariLenard Yacht Design Studio. They contacted me via Instagram, asking me for permission to repost my build on their page.
