At Wooga I created artwork for various games for various platforms, bringing those games to the next level. I've worked on four different projects:My latest project wass Wooga's most successful title: June's Journey. I was responsible for the isometric art of the seasonal items, some character work, and my latest task was background / environment art. I worked close with the art-director, and the other artists in the team, as well as the designers and writers. I worked with Photoshop, Modo and Blender, and was responsible for feedback and maintaining contact with our outsourcing partners. I was mentoring interns and junior artists.I started as 2D / Flash UI artist on Wooga's successful title Diamond Dash and helped polishing this game with millions of users for over a year.My second project was all-round artist (2D, 3D, characters, environment, UI) for Wooga's midcore strategy game now known as Innogames' Warlords of Aeternum.I worked for almost two years on another midcore strategy game, with working title Doge, that never got released. My initial role was principal concept artist, responsible for general look and feel, later narrowed down to being responsible for isometric art. I designed many different buildings with many upgrades, and I was responsible for much of the environment.
