------------------------- Interview: NightEye -------------------------

You, Summarised...

Name (just first): Arjen

Alias: NightEye

Age: 21

Location: Westerbroek, The Netherlands

Qualifications (if any): I guess none yet

Current Job: I work in a supermarket. Playing Joseph Stalin for the 15-year-olds
Actually people think real bad about working in a supermarket. I work there for 3,5 years, and always with a lot of fun. The more and longer you work there, the more responsibility you get. Which you can abuse for those 15-year-olds or simply use to help people. And helping people is something I like doing

Like To Get To Know You Well...

What made you get into digital art? Long story. It all began with Half-Life! I used to make levels for HL with Hammer, untill we bought Need For Speed 3: Hot Pursuit. That game was so cool back then, so I started to mod a few cars. Making a Volvo out of the BMW M5, changing textures, colours, etc.. Then, with CarCAD, I modeled my own tank. the UV map was ugly as hell, but that was my very first real model. After a while I began to use ZModeler to edit cars from Need For Speed 4: High Stakes. Then built my own first car for it. I liked the modelling a lot, and look where it brought me..

What do you like most about this field? The challenge, I think. When I encounter a difficult section of a model, it's the time when I enjoy it the most. Sometimes it's really breaking me up, but most of the time it encourages me to make that piece as good as I possibly can.

Explain what your current job entails, and why you like it: As I said, directing a group of children (15-23 years old). Making sure they do their jobs correctly. Other than that, I do pretty much the same as them.

What do you see yourself working as in 10 years? Bridge constructor. Either designing or supervising. I'm studying civil engineering now, and next year I'm doing a design course.

What is your dream company in this field that you would want to work for, and why? Witteveen+Bos, like anyone would know this They design stuff like bridges, water locks, etc.

Wrapping You Up...

What are your other hobbies/interests? Photography, photo-editing, playing music (piano) and making it (pc). Other than that: playing pool, cycling, driving my car.. somewhat like that

And last but not least, since this is a 3D car-related forum, what is your dream car, and why? Wow. Err.. Lots and lots actually. Audi R8, Aston Martin DBS, Spyker C8 Laviolette, Saleen S7, Pagani Zonda C12S, McLaren F1 LM, .. you know...
