When I first started working with Robbie, I had recently entered into the creative industries. Robbie was the perfect creative partner, experienced by inventive, agile yet specialized, personable yet...and this is really key...never annoying. Creative people can sometimes have an ego. Robbie probably should have an ego with his extraordinary talent, but instead he is outstandingly easy to work with.
There are few people I would feel as confident recommending as I do recommending Robbie. Just don't keep him so busy he wont take my calls." and "Rob has the two qualities that are most important in an artist: Talent and Reliability. An extremely versatile illustrator and concept artist, Rob can seamlessly match any existing brand style. But he can also bring his own unique look to concepts, either on his own or through creative direction. Rob's coloring/shading/texturing skills in Photoshop are superb and evocative. He is always quick to respond to emails and he has never failed me on a deadline. He has more than once saved me by quickly addressing last-minute asks (haha - although, to spare Rob, I probably shouldn't advertise that super power of his!). Seriously, work with Rob once and you will hire him again."
Listed skills include Illustration, Art Direction, Character Animation, Creative Direction, and 17 others.
