About Me

About Image

Hi! I’m Yahia Shendy. I'm from Egypt and based in the UK. I'm an artist with a passion for storytelling and dynamic visuals. I graduated with First Class Honours in BA (hons) Animation form Nottingham Trent University. I specialize in 2D animation, 2D VFX, illustration, 3d modeling and character design.

My creative heart lies in crafting compelling characters and high-energy action scenes, all brought to life through expressive, hand-drawn animation. I'm proficient in Adobe Suite, Clip Studio Paint, Toon Boom, TV Paint and more. I’m always exploring new ways to push my style and technique.

Beyond animation, I’m developing my own original comic book series, featuring a world and characters I've created from the ground up, stay tuned for its release!

My goal is to contribute to exciting, boundary-pushing projects, collaborate with like-minded creatives, and leave a mark in the world of animation.
