Ep. 249 Toys on Tap w/ Sebastián Gómez: From Chile to the Toy Shelf: a Journey in 3D Art and Nostalgia
Description
We sit down with 3D artist and toy designer Sebastian to explore his incredible journey from Chile to the U.S., where he arrived without knowing a word of English and found his voice through art and toys. From sketching Thundercats and TMNT to sculpting for Disney and landing a licensing deal with Mondo, Sebastian shares how a childhood love for collecting became a full-fledged creative career. We dive into his work in animation, digital sculpting, and custom toy design for his son, all while balancing life in Ohio and a thriving artistic passion. It’s a story of resilience, nostalgia, and pure creative drive.
