Yes This Exists
But Why?
Its all because I’m now a Digital Design student at the University Of Hull and I need more places to show off my work other than my personal websites its mainly becausethis one is controlled by the university itself so I can post everything here for anyone that might be interested.
Who am I?
My given name is Ian Mcfayden but I go by “Taminaion” as a screenname and its been my dream for quite some time now to create animations and make amazing things with the power of 2D and 3D applications and game engines and someday bring all my ideas to life threw those programs.
