Vijay is one of the most creative dynamos I've seen. One of the most cross-disciplinary designers and programmers - working in 3D, 2D, Art, Design, Code. Mans does it all. With a heart of gold to boot.
... and what a backstory!
Thank you, Rogie, for your love and support always 🫶

This man is pure talent. Goes on to show that no matter where you are from, if you put in the time, you can be among the top 1%. Respect to Vijay Sir! 💯
Very well said Waqaaar. He doesn't play the victim. Needed to support his parents... got to work. Wanted more than the job...studied... upskilled... put in 10000s of hours.
Absolute GOAT. He deserves all the recognition in the world. The sheer amount of work that he puts out on a daily basis is jaw dropping. Have seen only very few people as consistent as Vijay. ❣️
100% agree, thankful I got to spotlight him in a little. Only bigger things to come! :)

He uses Procreate to get started, then takes things to Figma for the polish.
