About Me

Wei Ho has been drawing for pretty much all of his life, but his profession in art became fully realized in 1994 doing character concepts for a start-up video game company.

His talent and skills placed him at many companies, doing concept designs, 3D modeling, animations and VFX in both the video game and in the movie industries.

His work has been featured in such movies as: The Mummy 3, Superman Returns, The Chronicles of Riddick, X-Men 2, Garfield the Movie, and Serenity. For a full credits list, check his IMDb page. His dynamic skill set has also given him the opportunity to create attractions for Disney Theme Park attractions. As a hobbyist, he soon started collecting and selling statues online. Being in the toy industry eventually lead him to partner up with Yamato Toys to fulfill his dream of creating a line of statues base on his own personal art. Four statues were created for his own Asian Mythology Series, and another five statues based on Greek Mythology. Each one he designed and digitally sculpted.

Today, Wei focuses his diverse talents in producing and creation of contents on youTube, as well as working on his own personal projects to improve and ultimately satisfy his intense need to create.
