Who?

I am a freelance 3D artist and software developer (he/him) from Augsburg, Germany creating furry 3D art and VR avatars.

During my first internet adventures in 1998, I found the name Kianga (pronounced key-UN-ga) in a Swahili dictionary, translated as “burst of sunlight after rain.” It reminded me of the beautiful ending scene from The Lion King, and I chose it as my online nickname. I learned that it’s a female name only after I had used it for almost every online account. It’s nice and short though, and I still like the image.

If you’d like to know more about my personal history and career and don't mind me rambling a bit, I've written a longer post about it. I also have a list of tools that I use for my work and personal life, if you’re curious about that.

Contact

My preferred social media platform is Mastodon, but I also have profiles on Bluesky and other sites. Feel free to follow me there if you’d like to stay in touch!

You can also send me an email, or leave me a note in my anonymous mailbox.

Charr PecsArt meme
3D render featuring two shirtless and very muscular male charr looking down at the viewer with big grins. Their massive chests occupy most of the frame. The charr on the left has brown fur, yellow eyes, and a red eye patch, the one on the right has white fur with black tiger stripes, blue eyes, and barbell nipple piercings.

I’m a bit late with that meme, but…
