About Me

“Toliho” is my creative alias, derived from my full name, Tom Oliver Hockenhull. I am an Environment and 3D Artist based in the UK.

Since 2018, I’ve been studying and working within the games industry. I studied a BA (Hons) and MA in Games Art at Sheffield Hallam University, graduating with First Class Honours in both qualifications (2022).

Professionally, I have contributed to a published title on the PS5 Racecar Crashers and I am currently creating art assets for a soon to be published title on Steam. Alongside industry work, I have worked in teaching for two years, helping to pioneer a first-of-it’s-kind Indie Games Development BSc, supporting the growth of the next generation of games industry talent, while continuing to refine my own craft.

I am currently seeking a permanent role within an established game studio, where I can contribute to ambitious projects, collaborate with talented developers and continue to grow as a professional.

My workflow has traditionally centres around creating polished, game-ready assets and environments using industry-standard tools. I am continuously expanding my technical skillset, currently this is focusing on improving my knowledge of C# and programming in general, bridging the gap between art and technology.
