Tony Halstead
Versatile 3D Game Artist
Hi everybody!
Let me start by saying a big thank you for your interest in my page. Here you will see a lot of great content about both digital and 3D art.
​
My interest in art started during my college years when I became fascinated by the technology and depth of the material involved in creating a successful game. I graduated with a Master's Degree as an established 3D Game Artist, aspiring to work in the game industry. Inspired by the works of Adam Adamowicz and Markus Persson, I honed my skills and passion for game development.
​
In 2013, I founded Dark Mystery Designs to promote and share my own art. What started as a platform to showcase my work has now evolved into an indie games company. My work, influenced by the fascination with the mystery of the unknown and dark elements of nature and everyday life, aims to bring virtual worlds to life. As a 3D game developer, I specialize in crafting stunning characters and immersive environments that captivate audiences.
​
With expertise in 3D art, game design, QA, and development, I am dedicated to creating captivating visual experiences. Please feel free to get in touch with any queries you may have, either through the contact details below or via the direct contact form.
