About & Frequently Asked Questions
I am a digital artist living in Finland. I’ve so far primarily worked on console and computer games. I’m also the admin on this site. Currently I’m working as a supervisor in a movie project and doing sometimes freelancing.
I have also done some graphics design, illustration and photography. Here you can find information about me and samples of work i’ve done. Where stated so, there has been other artists working on images.
This site’s purpose is to promote my works and try to provide more work opportunities for me, so please be kind. Same goes for main section and Sami’s sections.
I have been working on graphics, mostly on computer and mobile games for last 10 years now. I’ve been working on such games as Trust, Twist ‘n’ Turn (Carts Entertainment / Take2), Rally Trophy (Bugbear / Jowood), Transworld Snowboarding (Housemarque / Atari), Flatout (Bugbear / Empire), Stuntcar Racer Extreme (Fathammer/Dell), Spy Hunter (Fathammer/Tapwave) and I’m currently working on a movie project as a supervisor. I’ve also been doing web graphics, content for smaller mobile games, editing video, animating, painting textures, working on concept design, scripting etc. What other people don’t wanna do, I’ve usually done.
Q: Where can I see your works?
A: My hobby works, tutorials and interviews have also been featured many times in front pages of several largest graphics related sites, books and magazines – 3D Total, Cgtalk, Highend 3D, Deathfall, Cgchannel, Vocanson, Ballistic Publishing’s Elemental artbook, Computer Grafica magazine, QUO Magazine, 3DUser Magazine and a few upcoming releases.
See below.
Q: Can you do work for free?
A: In short – No. I cannot work for free, making living here is already absurdly hard, so please, don’t mail me for requests to make graphics for mods, websites, posters, games, videos etc for free. But feel free to mail me if you think you have something to offer that I might also benefit from.
Q: Can I use your graphics on my webpage?
A: Not without written permission. Also I would appreciate if you don’t link to files on this site without permission. Images etc on web sites are not usually public domain!
