I am mogami, a paper model artist. I mainly design paper models using 3D modeling software. I also specialize in creating photorealistic textures with digital painting and texturing tools.

• “mogami” is both my website name and artist name. The name is a coined word combining “mo” (from 面: surface, 模: imitation, 最: best) and “gami” (紙: paper). It reflects my aim to create designs that imitate real materials on paper, while also striving to design the best possible paper models.
