I am a 3D Character Artist and Illustrator.
I have a degree in Architecture and started working in 3D as an Arch Viz artist.
After winning CGSociety's XXIV Challenge First Prize Master Award, in 2009, I have been exclusively dedicated to Characters, working as a Freelancer.
In the last 10 years, I have been working as a 3D Character sculptor for figures and collectibles and had the opportunity of working on characters from many major studios, such as Marvel, Disney, DC Comics, Pixar, Warner Bros, Fox, Paramount, Nickelodeon.
Also, my work has been published in many books and magazines.
