I'm originally from Greece and moved here when I was an infant hence my lack of accent. (for those who meet me) coming from a traditional animation background, I work as a digital sculptor and 3D modeler for the film industry which is truly a labor of love. Now that I no longer draw for a living, I still do the traditional art (and some of the digital) out of pure enjoyment and catharsis. Its a compulsion really, but as fellow artists here Im sure you all understand this compulsion yourselves. Below is my demo reel featuring selected professional works.

As I can see, you have to be a huge Silent Hill fan. I adore your work - very disturbing and inspiring.
Hope you visit my gallery too, I'm also trying to invent some creatures, that would suit to SH mythology.

I thought I had searched DA for interesting Silent Hill inspired designs... but somehow I missed you.

These are EASILY the best concepts i've seen (i don't want to say fan-art... this is a truly inspiring body of work you have here!). Some of these really should be in a game. The Scraper is the best creature concept i've seen in a long time. Your designs are not only imaginative, but they have purpose- I feel like each design has a story to tell, and a reason for it's existance. Major props for not just designing 'cool monsters', but going the distance and creating thought-provoking images and ideas.

To me, it's not the designs of Silent Hill that I find most inspiring, but the ideas behind them. Bravo!

Wow! thank you very much. You would be right about the reasons behind my drawings, usually there's bad times in my life that have inspired me to create these. I figure Masahiro Ito's silent hill designs gave me a new shape language to express my frustrations and sometimes depressions. Again thank you for your kind words.

Wow. Your gallery is... amazing
If a movie was made with all of your deformed creatures it might just be the best movie ever :D

If I peeled away my skin and bone
Spilled my blood or sliced my throat
Laid to rest, again renewed
Then would that be enough for you?

Thank you so much! Hopefully the movie would also have a good story to tell as well, theres a lot of really good looking movies out there that have no story

Very true :noes:
A lot of horror movies have no plot whatsoever =[
I'm sure people have made this comparison a million times...
But your gallery reminds me a lot of Silent Hill. =P
