Reference

“Chris brings a ton of experience and skill to any project he works on. His depth of knowledge and application of skill has raised the quality bar on every project he has worked on with me, and I always appreciate his company on a team.”

Steven Russell, Studio Art Director, THQ Studio Australia


"Chris has a wealth of knowledge and talent, produces very inspiring work and is one of the most focused people I've had the pleasured to work with."

Dean Ferguson - Lead Character Artist, Krome Studios Australia

"Chris was hired as an animator, and he did some really good work. However he really showed off his max and zbrush mastery by producing some amazing character models. It's always a pleasure to work with talented people like Chris"

John Northwood - Technical Director, Fuzzyeyes Studio

"When I managed Chris in character creation, he was able to achieve the direction I have established for the game with quite a precise manner. He does not complain, he only tried to work out good solutions to achieve the target under an extremely tight deadline. His artistic/game knowledge does not only exist in character modeling but also in animation, if a company is looking for an artist knows both skills he is a good candidate."

Justin Kuo - Art Director, Fuzzyeyes Studio
