Who I Am
The Story of My Life
My childhood
Since I was very young, I felt a deep connection with music, sports, art, and video games. They were the fundamental pillars of my life. During my teenage years, at the age of 13, I discovered bodybuilding—a passion that has stayed with me ever since. There was something mesmerizing about those sculpted physiques and the magnificent poses, something that drew me in. Channeling my strength through the weights made me feel incredible.
For nearly 20 years, I dedicated my life to music, playing numerous instruments and immersing myself in their melodies. In my early years, I would spend countless hours drawing, an art form that has always fascinated me. And throughout my life, I have found joy in intense, exhausting training sessions. I also had hobbies, with video games serving as an escape—a gateway to other worlds where I could forget reality for a while and simply enjoy.
The Sculture and The Art
At 23, I discovered digital sculpting—a perfect blend of my fascination with human anatomy, my artistic inclinations from childhood, and my dream of creating video games. It was something I never could have imagined.
From that moment on, due to this newfound passion and some unfortunate experiences in the music industry, I devoted myself entirely to sculpting instead of music. More than ten years of pure dedication, countless projects, and an unexpected discovery—I had a deep passion for teaching. By chance, I realized that I loved sharing knowledge, something I had always wanted to do in the fitness world, but it materialized through sculpting instead. And it became one of the greatest things that ever happened to me.
My worst moments. A new birth
Then came 2017, a year that hit hard, marking some of the most difficult times of my life. The following year, I sought a new challenge, a goal to pursue, and thus, Ash World Studios was born. A year later, I made the bold decision to leave all my jobs and fully dedicate myself to the project, but an injury put everything on hold.
Challenges are opportunities—or so I told myself—so I decided to take a step forward. I couldn’t sculpt due to my injury, but I could still create. I took a story I had imagined as a child, a world where I once played as its protagonist, and turned it into reality. That was the birth of the idea for a comic. As a lifelong fan of comics, I set out to bring my own story to life. This marked the beginning of DMAN and my greatest project for the future.
The most difficult project of my life
Six years of relentless dedication since my injury, all leading to the grand launch in 2025—a comic based on my story, collectible figures from the series, the most refined sculpture course I could create, and the evolution and rebranding of Ash World Studios. Today, at 33 years old, with the project nearing its release, these have been the hardest-working years of my life. A project into which I have poured so much of myself, one that fills me with immense pride. I only hope that people will enjoy it and that it will have been worth it.
Lastly, and something I wanted to set apart, I want to explain why I am the way I am and why I do what I do.
My life on the Internet
As a child, I loved playing video games, but what I enjoyed even more was playing alongside my sister or cousin, sharing the experience with them. In 2006, shortly after YouTube was created, I uploaded my first videos, and that feeling of sharing an experience exploded—I realized that this was my true passion. Sharing.
Since then, I have dedicated a significant part of my life to my channel, Sergiopatin99. At first, I uploaded music content (on another channel), but I eventually transitioned to video games. It has been years of hard work, countless experiences, and immense sacrifice, even though I never made a living from it. In the end, I found myself sharing my sculpting work and building a small community that I am incredibly proud of and have deeply enjoyed being a part of.
I leave this for the end because, without YouTube and the experience of sharing, I would have never discovered sculpting. I wouldn’t have experienced the joy of sharing my work, nor would I have built the community that has given me so much. A part of my life exists on the internet, in the experiences I’ve had, and in the people I’ve met because of it.
This is a very brief summary of who I am and what has shaped me. Everyone has their own story, and every day, I wake up to write mine.
