As a 2D Artist at this small but vibrant studio in the heart of Canterbury I had the pleasure of working in a tight knit team on titles such as 'Captain Planet - Gaia Guardians' and the Amateur Surgeon Series.

The work required strict adherence to deadlines, excellent communication and an iterative process with constantly changing parameters and requirements. Not to mention a good sense of humour that could translate into the characters!

Nathalie was such a joy to work with! She listened to my input, and could always understand what I wanted, even when I didn't do a good job of explaining it. She was very professional and always prompt in responding to me. And most importantly, I LOVE the cover she created for me! I will definitely hire her again for the sequel!
