I am writing to offer you my service as a concept artist and illustrator with the certainty that it could be very profitable for your company and for myself.
Please check my webpage www.diegocandia.com to see some samples of my work.
These samples are typical of my skills as an concept artist and illustrator, but I CAN ADAPT MYSELF TO THE THEMATIC AND STYLE that you may be looking for at this moment.
So, if you don't see a sample in my portfolio of what you have in mind, please let me know.
I have more than 12 years of experience working with several companies and editors, for that reason I really think that I can be a great addition to your work.
The most recent works in concept art are for SUBSTANTIAL GAMES (Beijing) for the video game "the ember conflict"(www.emberconflict.com) (2 years), AUTOMATIC GAMES (http://automaticgames.net), STRIKE GAMES (FINAL RUSH the videogame, www.strikegames.net), SLIMESANDWICH (www.scapsagent.com), among others.
As illustrator, I worked as a freelance artist for Sal Quartuccio Productions (www.sqpinc.com), Z-MAN GAMES INC (www.zmangames.com), and as a storyboard artist, for the local publicity agencies and international productions , like HOTWHEELS AND MAX STEEL.
In comics, some of the companies that I worked for are LAMP POST INCORPORATED (www.lamppostpubs.com), AND ZONDERVAN (www.zondervan.com).
If you are interested I can go into more detail.
Thank you very much for your time and attention.
Regards,
Diego Candia.
