TILL ASCHWANDEN
—————–
ART MONKEY
Till hails from the land of Switzerland recognized by the rest of the world as Sweden. Known to him as the only country that makes real bread. He has 4 years of experience as a character artist working as a 3D modeler for Blizzard Entertainment, but his true passion is in the world of 2D. The universe of The Bug Butcher was being concocted in his mind, but only became a fruitful reality when he reunited with his former Blizzard Entertainment co-worker, Rainer Zoettl. Till’s cutesy gore style gives life and true personality to his characters while providing eye candy for the rest of us. He primarily dwells in flash and photoshop, but to break his artistic constipation he seeks the comforts of surfing or playing frisbee with Sir Winston (his zealous emotional support dog). Steeped in a life of gaming, Till is a true gamer at heart, but these days most his gaming is done on the porcelain throne with his phone.

RAINER ZOETTL
—————–
DEV MONKEY
Rainer is Austrian grown with over 10 years of experience in the VFX Business while also cultivating his love for trees by dabbling in carpentry. His true homage to trees is obvious in his creation of the home tree in the movie Avatar. He also worked on District 9, the Hobbit, Avengers, Cloud Atlas and many more while working for Weta Digital and Scanline VFX. Rainer’s hearty predilection for gaming led to his switch into the game industry where he worked for Blizzard Entertainment. He only realized he is a glutton for punishment when he became Awfully Nice Studios’ backend guru. When he is not battling the coder’s glaze you can find him playing with his kids or furiously button mashing his next game conquest. A deep hatred for bugs has developed in Rainer, but he now feels a certain kinship with Harry…aka the Bug Butcher.
