About me

        Hello dear visitor! my name is Fernando García and I currently live and work in Madrid (Spain). I'm a part time freelance illustrator, character designer, and 3D modeller.

        Most of the work you will see in this webpage has been done as part of personal projects, developing an idea that I found interesting, or trying something that I had never tried before. Some of the artworks have also been done for online activities where a topic was chosen and everybody had to come with a finished artwork in a specific time. For example, I've participated in CGSociety daily sketch group (maximum 2h each artwork), in conceptart.org Character of the week forums (where the time limit is a full week), or in several CGSociety challenges (lasting 2-3 months), in each one of them I always tried to push myself further and do it better than last time. I have also done some paid jobs, as creating a mascot for a students' robotics group, or designing a laptop skin for Garskin Ltd.

        I'm comfortable working in both 2D and 3D. When doing a 2D image, I usually work with photoshop and my wacom tablet, although I have some recent works done in traditional media, and I still prefer to do the initial sketches for an idea in a piece of paper. For the 3D part, I'm using Max, while I'm also learning to use Zbrush at the moment.
