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 /kiː'ʌŋgʌ/) 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.

3D render of a male charr standing on floating black rocks in a volcanic environment, with lava below and dark stone walls in the distance. The character has yellow fur with black tiger stripes, a long golden mane, and three pairs of horns of a dark purple color, covered in cracks filled with lava. He is wearing a dark purple loincloth and channeling fiery magic that runs from his left hand along his arm, across his chest, and into his right hand.

3D render of a nighttime scene with eight anthropomorphic characters on a wooden raft, illuminated in vibrant colors under a starry sky. All of them are wearing colorful glow rings around their wrists, ankles, and horns. Huxley, a male wolf-husky wearing headphones, standing on a raised platform behind a DJ table. Storm, a male charr with white fur and black tiger stripes standing next to Huxley, both hands raised channeling colorful magic. Ferox, a large male tiger-striped charr with brown fur wearing only a steel jockstrap, breakdancing in the middle of the raft. Drizzlebone, a male charr with gray fur, sitting to the left and enjoying a drink. Laelia, a female collie with a green and yellow fur pattern wearing a pink bikini sitting on the right, watching Ferox with her feet dangling above the water. Kianga, a male charr with brown fur and a red eye patch wearing red swimming trunks standing behind Ferox, clapping for him. Zurena, a female charr with brown fur and a steel eye patch, right fist raised, also cheering for Ferox. Garro, a large male charr with yellow fur standing on the right with his hands on his hips, watching Ferox. And finally there’s Seraphis, a large black dragon with glowing golden runes, visible in the background against the sky, flying towards group and probably about to “crash” the party.

Navigating this website

There are four main sections: Pages about specific topics (like my commission info), articles (basically blog posts), creative projects, and mementos (mostly art I have received from friends over the years).

You can also browse all of these by categories (like 3D art, virtual reality, or events), characters (like my charr warrior), or collections (like Charrtober 2021).

If you’re looking for a specific page, try the quick search or the site map.
