Hi, I’m Xinyan Feng, a 3D illustrator and toy maker from Suzhou, China. I create handcrafted characters, sets, and sculptures, using photography to bring them to life. My work is all about storytelling through texture, detail, and composition, making sure every piece feels immersive and full of personality.
I love the process of building things by hand—figuring out materials, solving structural challenges, and refining every little element, even in places that might never be seen. That’s why I’m drawn to stop-motion and practical effects—the craftsmanship and attention to detail inspire me to approach my own work with the same level of care.
Through sculpture, set design, and photography, I explore the intersection of illustration, fabrication, and storytelling, creating work that feels cinematic, a little surreal, and full of life.
