Hi, my name is Conrad Tulig, I grew up in Ashland MA spending my free time mainly playing soccer, Dungeons and Dragons, and building robots. After I graduated high school my family moved to Somerville MA. At WPI I am currently a junior living in an on-campus apartment and I am double majoring in Robotic Engineering and Computer Science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The role art plays in my life is mainly to complement and enhance activities I do with my friends, namely Dungeons and Dragons. Over the past 4-5 years I’ve painted a couple hundred D&D miniatures that we use in our sessions which helps improve the character and immersiveness of the world we make. The inspiration for these as well as my other art in general has primarily comes from pulling from different references to either other movies\/games\/etc. or from past experiences that I know will be familiar with the target audience. The finished products of some of these miniatures are definitely the works of art I am most proud of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In terms of digital art, most of my experiences are more academic related with taking Digital Art and 3D Modeling at WPI where I’ve notable learned how to use Photoshop, Maya, and ZBrush. I have also put some of this knowledge together for creating art for my own games I’ve programmed.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In many of my robotics projects over the years I have enjoyed taking the extra time to add some character to the robots I create after finishing them. In the future as a robotic engineer, I believe having an artistic background not only is important on the physical aspect of designing robots that’s appealing for consumers to buy, but also aids in creativity and finding elegant solutions during the actual prototyping process of the project.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
