Kettle was a longtime, active figure in the Bethesda modding community, and he was a prolific contributor during critical years of Skywind's development. He implemented complex 3D assets, animations, and weathers, and he also creatively used NifSkope to bring Morrowind mechanics back for Skywind.

At a time when determination and direction were direly needed, Kettlewitch took the reins of Skywind's 3D team and pushed the project forward. He was a mentor and an inspiration to many. Widely used knowledge in the modding community wouldn't exist without his curiosity and experimentation. His passing is a loss to us all.

Thank you, Kettle, for helping us create a world for people to explore and get lost in, and a community for us to share. Your technical and artistic knowledge forever enriches Skywind and all the projects that you worked to bring to life. We will miss you greatly.
