About Me

Hi, my name is Aliapkin Aleksei.

I am crafting digital experiences at the intersection of mathematics and visual design.

I specialize in TypeScript, React and Three.js technologies. I have knowledge of 3d rendering pipeline, mathematical background and strong 3D modeling skills.

Based in Belgrade, Serbia — open to relocation and available for projects worldwide.

Outside of work, I’m into windsurfing, yachting, dancing West Coast Swing, and riding enduro bike. I also do tattooing, creating designs in my own style and putting them on my clients.

Hair generator

React

Three.js

A tool for generation of hair textures for real time rendering. It is able to generate large amount of hair geometry and bake high resolution information to albedo, normal, ambient occlusion, height, id and alpha cutout maps. Textures are applied to "hair card" meshes to render high quality and high performance believable hair in real time rendering engines, i.e. game engines.
